Build ultra-fast web APIs and full-stack apps with Hono — runs on Cloudflare Workers, Deno, Bun, Node.js, and any WinterCG-compatible runtime.

When to use

• Use when building a REST or RPC API for edge deployment (Cloudflare Workers, Deno Deploy)
• Use when you need a minimal but type-safe server framework for Bun or Node.js
• Use when building a Backend for Frontend (BFF) layer with low latency requirements
• Use when migrating from Express but wanting better TypeScript support and edge compatibility
• Use when the user asks about Hono routing, middleware, `c.req`, `c.json`, or `hc()` RPC client

When not to use

• Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
• Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
• Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
