You can do this with any harness. I really dislike the Node.js ecosystem and avoid Pi and the like. I started with another one written in Go that has all the basics and I can extend it in minutes for anything I need while keeping track of upstream.

Pi can run on Bun. I use it within ThinkRail which is an electronBun app! Pretty good speed and low enough memory usage. Highly recommended.

bun is just an alternative runner for the node ecosystem

I know but ElectronBun installs as a normal binary , you don’t need to install Node or Bun.

...it just bundles bun + the source files, it's no different from running a global bun binary.

which one uses Go?

I recently found Zot. It’s basically a younger Pi written in Golang and distributed as a single Go binary. The author is very fast with fixing bugs and it has grown to a state where I use it for most things now!

Another one written in Go is Crush
