`wrnexus build` failed on any client function whose body used TypeScript:
const requestBody: Record<string, unknown> = {}
error: Expected ";" but found ":"
Codegen copies a client function's body into the browser module verbatim.
It removes the types from the function's *signature*, which is what made
this easy to miss -- the emitted module looked transpiled, and only bodies
carried types through. The artifact is written as .mjs and read back as
plain JavaScript, so the failure surfaced as a syntax error in generated
code rather than at the .wrn line responsible.
Browser modules are now transpiled before they are written, at all three
sites that emit one (the production build and both dev-server paths).
Reproduced end to end: a page with an annotated body failed the build with
the reported errors, and after the fix builds, ships valid minified JS, and
runs -- the handler sets its state correctly in a browser.
Note: the same body is also embedded as a string for the CSP-safe fallback
interpreter, which still receives it untranspiled. The compiled module
shadows the fallback, so this is only reachable in the window before that
module loads. Left alone here because stripping it lives in codegen, which
also runs under Node in the editor bundle where the Bun transpiler is
unavailable.

WRNexusJS
WRNexusJS is a compiler-driven, SSR-first, Bun-native full-stack framework for building secure, fast, maintainable applications with .wrn pages, layouts, components, stores, server functions, client functions, typed outputs, APIs, validation, authentication, realtime rooms, and production tooling.
Current framework version: 0.8.0
Core principles
- Secure by default with CSP, CSRF, safe serialization, URL policies, request limits, SSRF protection, secret scanning, and release gates.
- Performance-first SSR with zero framework JavaScript for static pages and selective hydration for interactive pages.
- One compiler-understood
.wrnmodel for markup, props, state, outputs, and runtime-specific functions. - Backward-compatible package upgrades with migrations, generated references, validation scripts, and private publishing controls.
- Package kits that give developers public helpers, package tests, documentation, and complete UI blocks where a package has a developer-facing interface.
Quick start
bun install
bun run validate:0.8
bun run check
bun run dev
Create or upgrade a project:
bunx @wrnexus/cli@0.8.0 create my-app
bunx @wrnexus/cli@0.8.0 update --version=0.8.0 --report
Package kits in 0.8
All 39 framework packages expose a documented helper/API surface and package tests. UI-facing packages additionally own complete .wrn blocks composed from @wrnexus/ui:
@wrnexus/auth— complete account, sign-in, sign-up, MFA, passkey, recovery, device, provider, and security blocks.@wrnexus/captcha— challenge, field, status, extraction, verification, response, and context helpers.@wrnexus/i18n— recursive locale loading, fallback chains, request resolution, SSR/browser translations, language controls, and formatters.@wrnexus/image— responsive picture plans, secure loaders, placeholders, preload hints, audits, and image blocks.@wrnexus/realtime— typed messages, room connections, presence, typing, metadata, composer, status, and message blocks.@wrnexus/uploader— upload attributes, result validation, formatting, dropzone, and status blocks.@wrnexus/validation— parse/throw helpers, consistent error responses, summaries, and field errors.@wrnexus/ui— the complete shared design-system component catalog.
Infrastructure packages remain helper/API-only so database, encryption, security, compiler, server, and build packages do not pull browser UI into production server code.
Security note for encrypted HTTP bodies
@wrnexus/encryption supports authenticated application-layer request and response envelopes with method, path, request-ID, timestamp, expiry, key-rotation, body-size, and replay binding.
This feature does not replace HTTPS. It is appropriate for service-to-service calls, native/mobile clients, controlled agents, or selected fields with server-managed keys. It cannot hide data from an end user when a browser receives the decryption key.
