Hey HN,

I'm 13, from Nigeria, and I just released PrinceJS — the fastest web framework for Bun right now.

• 19,200 req/s (beats Hono/Elysia/Express) • 2.8 kB gzipped • Tree-shakable (cache, AI, email, cron, SSE, queue, test, static...) • Zero deps. Zero config.

Built in < 1 week. No team. Just me and Bun.

Try it: `bun add princejs` GitHub: https://github.com/MatthewTheCoder1218/princejs Docs: https://princejs.vercel.app

Brutal feedback welcome. What's missing?

The readme and stats remind me of VanillaJS, which should be a sign that you're not making a fair comparison here. Anyhow, I think this can be a very educational experience if you keep adding features and benchmarking — it'll get slower, but you'll know exactly why.

Here's the obligatory comment complimenting you on the project given your age too. It's certainly more advanced than anything I tried at that age.
