[Elysia](https://elysiajs.com) is a Bun-first web framework built on Bun's HTTP, file system, and hot reloading APIs. Get started with `bun create`.
|
|
|
|
```bash terminal icon="terminal"
|
|
bun create elysia myapp
|
|
cd myapp
|
|
bun run dev
|
|
```
|

To define an HTTP route and start a server with Elysia:
|
|
|
|
```ts server.ts icon="/icons/typescript.svg"
|
|
import { Elysia } from "elysia";
|
|
|
|
const app = new Elysia().get("/", () => "Hello Elysia").listen(8080);
|
|
|
|
console.log(`🦊 Elysia is running on port ${app.server?.port}...`);
|
|
```
|

Elysia is a server framework with Express-like syntax, type inference, middleware, file uploads, and plugins for JWT authentication and OpenAPI documentation. It's one of the [fastest Bun web frameworks](https://github.com/SaltyAom/bun-http-framework-benchmark).
