@universal-rate-limit/hono

Hono middleware for universal-rate-limit — a zero-dependency rate limiter built on web standards. Supports fixed-window and sliding-window algorithms, pluggable stores (memory, Redis, or your own), and IETF-compliant rate limit headers out of the box. Works on Node.js, Bun, Deno, Cloudflare Workers, and other edge runtimes.
