# Deploy and Host Bun + Hono on Railway

This is a barebones starter template for a Bun project using the Hono web framework. It provides a simple foundation to build a web application with binary compilation, route grouping, CORS setup, and health check endpoints. This template is ready to be deployed on Railway.

## About Hosting Bun + Hono

We utilize a multi-stage Dockerfile to compile the application into a binary for optimal production performance. The development environment supports hot reloading for a better developer experience.

## Common Use Cases

- **Web Application Development**: Build fast web applications with minimal framework overhead
- **API Development**: Create REST APIs with built-in CORS and logging middleware
- **Microservices**: Deploy lightweight services with health check endpoints and route organization
