Reviewer scorecard
“Best instruction-following of any model. Tool use and extended thinking are reliable. The API design is clean.”
“End-to-end type safety with Eden treaty is the killer feature. Bun-native performance is excellent.”
“Claude consistently produces the most useful outputs for real work. The longer context window is a genuine advantage.”
“Bun-first means limited runtime flexibility. If Bun adoption stalls, Elysia is stranded. Hono is safer.”
“Anthropic's focus on safety without sacrificing capability is the right approach. Claude keeps getting better.”
“Type-safe APIs without code generation is the right direction. Elysia's DX hints at what web frameworks should feel like.”
