alt Hacker NewsThey also have made a release, in a sense, since they moved all Claude code users to it a month ago. (And apparently no one noticed).
I think they're taking things "gradually" as they are under a lot of scrutiny and no rush for full release.

I've had several bun-related crashes in Claude code in the last week, which I don't remember ever seeing before then.

Claude Code most likely only uses a tiny fraction of Bun/Node features, so Claude Code switching to the Rust rewrite doesn't mean all that much.

If that is true, isn't it a bit unconventional? What version are they using, some random Git SHA? Why couldn't that have been made to a release or a release candidate at least?
Claude Code has a huge userbase. This is an impressive result so soon after the rewrite.
This is an impressive milestone for their rewrite. There are a lot of comments trying to downplay this as being unimpressive for some reason, but I can’t see them as anything other than sour grapes because the rewrite hasn’t crashed and burned like they were hoping.
