Fast & Lightweight
Built with Bun for blazing fast performance and minimal overhead.
Everything in one small framework
Six things RiserBob gives you out of the box.
Modular Structure
Organize your application into clean, reusable modules that keep your codebase structured and easy to maintain.
Ready-to-Use Middleware
Protect routes and handle common request workflows with built-in middleware, without reinventing the wheel.
Blazing-Fast Performance
Built for Bun and TypeScript to deliver a lightweight HTTP core with speed at its foundation.
Built-in Validation
Validate incoming data with a simple, developer-friendly API—without the hassle of building validation from scratch.
Integrated CLI
Generate modules in seconds with commands like `bun run riser-bob g module users` and keep your development workflow moving.
Fun Sponge Zone
Enjoy playful SpongeBob-inspired messages and errors that make debugging feel like a trip to the bottom of the sea.
Readable by design
Every Sponge method returns the app, so routes chain naturally. Middleware sits right next to the handler it protects.
app.ts
1import { RiserBob } from "riser-bob";2 3const bob = new RiserBob();4 5// Chain routes, add middleware per route6bob.spongGet("/users", listUsers)7 .spongPost("/users", createUser)8 .spongGet("/me", me, auth.middleware);Errors, handled
One central error handler gives every failure a predictable response.
| Situation | Response |
|---|---|
| No matching route | 404 Not Found |
| Path exists, method does not | 405 Method Not Allowed + Allow header |
| Handler throws an HttpError | The error's status and message |
| Handler throws any other error | 500 — details are never exposed |
| Handler returns no Response | 500 |
RiserBob is a good fit if
- You want a fast, lightweight HTTP framework built for Bun.
- You want modular architecture without sacrificing flexibility.
- You prefer simple routing, middleware, and validation APIs.
- You enjoy playful, SpongeBob-inspired error messages and responses.
- You want freedom to use and customize the framework for personal or commercial projects.
Not for you if
- You prefer a strictly professional framework without playful, SpongeBob-inspired responses.
- You need support for runtimes other than Bun.
- You prefer a highly opinionated framework with strict architectural conventions.
