+
+Today, we are happy to announce that **Bun and Deno are now available as build runtimes for Appwrite Sites**. You can pick any supported version, from **Bun 1.0** up to the latest **Bun 1.3**, and from **Deno 1.40** up to the latest **Deno 2.6**, in the Console build runtime dropdown for any Node-based framework, and your existing site will build without any changes to your project, your `package.json`, or your build command.
+
+# Why Bun and Deno on Sites
+
+Sites already supports Node as a build runtime, and Node is going to keep being a great default. Adding Bun and Deno is about giving you a choice that matches how your team actually develops:
+
+- **Bun is fast where it counts for sites.** Dependency installs, lockfile resolution, and script execution are noticeably quicker than equivalent Node tooling, which makes it well suited to the install and build phase of a deploy. The Bun 1.x release line continues to improve npm compatibility and ships fixes that matter for modern framework toolchains.
+- **Deno brings a modern, secure JavaScript runtime.** Recent Deno releases are fully npm compatible, support monorepos, and ship a strong built-in toolchain including a formatter, linter, and test runner. If you already use Deno locally, you can now build your Appwrite Site with the same runtime instead of switching to Node for deploys.
+- **You can stay in your stack.** This is not a new framework or a new way to structure your project. The build runtime selector simply tells Appwrite which JavaScript runtime to use when installing dependencies and running your build command.
+
+# Available versions
+
+The build runtime dropdown for Node-based Sites frameworks now includes:
+
+- **Bun**: 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3
+- **Deno**: 1.40, 1.46, 2.0, 2.5, 2.6
+- **Node**: 14.5, 16.0, 18.0, 19.0, 20.0, 21.0, 22, 23, 24, 25
+
+Older Bun and Deno versions are included so that existing projects pinned to a specific runtime can keep deploying without an upgrade step. New sites should pick the latest version on each line, Bun 1.3 or Deno 2.6, unless a project has a reason to stay back.
+
+# Picking a build runtime in the Console
+
+The build runtime is configured per site under **Site settings**, in the **Runtime settings** section. Selecting a Bun or Deno version changes which runtime Appwrite uses to install dependencies and run your build command on the next deployment. Your active deployment is not affected until you redeploy.
