## Changes

The package README was rewritten from a 958-line reference dump into a
~370-line adoption path: quickstart (embedded and server in the first
screen), why/when comparison, the two modes, the six-language SDK table,
Simple Mode and Workflow teasers, and a short MCP setup, each section
deep-linking to the corresponding bunqueue.dev guide. Duplicated
sections, stale SDK lists and internal test details were removed; every
surviving claim and code sample was re-verified against the current API.
The README and the site now state explicitly that the server and the
embedded queue run in-memory unless a data path is configured.

## Changes

Twenty guide pages now show each client example in synced language tabs
covering Bun, Node.js/Deno, Python, PHP, Go, Rust and Elixir: the queue,
worker, quickstart, cron, DLQ, rate-limiting, flows, Simple Mode, TLS,
stall-detection, webhooks, troubleshooting, FAQ, security, migration,
installation, introduction, databases, examples and use-cases pages.
Every non-TypeScript sample was verified against the SDK sources; where
a feature does not exist in a language the docs say so explicitly
instead of showing code that would not compile. Bun-only pages
(workflow engine, QueueGroup, IoT forward(), Elysia/Hono, sandboxed
workers) carry an explicit runtime callout.

## Changes

The home hero now shows the real `bunx bunqueue start` boot output in an
animated, replayable terminal next to the per-language install step, with
Rust and Elixir added everywhere (install chips, language cards, trust
line). The quickstart and developer-experience code examples switched to
language tabs covering Bun, Node.js/Deno, Python, PHP, Go, Rust and
Elixir, the benchmark card moved next to the BullMQ comparison, and the
layout uses the full desktop width.
