SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Bun-first standardizes Bun as the primary runtime and tooling choice, simplifying setup and ensuring consistency across projects.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Centralizes runtime decisions around Bun for faster installs, simplified scripts, and consistent tooling across a codebase.
  • Enables Bun-native commands (bun install, bun add, bun remove, bun dev) to streamline development workflows and reduce external dependencies.
  • Use Case: Starting a new project with Bun-first conventions to accelerate bootstrapping and improve startup times.

Quick Start

Use Bun as the runtime by replacing npm/yarn/pnpm commands with bun equivalents and run bun dev to start the project.

Frequently Asked Questions about bun-first

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I set up a JavaScript project using Bun as the default runtime?▼

To set up a JavaScript project with Bun as the default runtime, replace standard npm or yarn commands with Bun equivalents like bun install and bun dev. This standardizes development environments and accelerates bootstrapping.

What are the benefits of using Bun over Node.js for JavaScript development environments?▼

Using Bun over Node.js simplifies JavaScript project setup and ensures tooling consistency. It provides faster package installs, simplified script execution, and unified commands like bun add and bun run.

Can I use standard npm or yarn commands in a Bun-first development environment?▼

In a Bun-first environment, standard npm or yarn commands are replaced by Bun-native equivalents. The workflow enforces commands like bun install, bun add, bun remove, and bun test to maintain consistency.

What is the best way to standardize JavaScript tooling across a new codebase?▼

The best way to standardize JavaScript tooling is centralizing runtime decisions around Bun. Applying Bun-native commands across the development stack reduces external dependencies and enforces consistent workflows.

When should I avoid enforcing a Bun-first workflow for project setup?▼

You should avoid enforcing a Bun-first workflow when your project relies on Node.js-specific dependencies or legacy scripts incompatible with Bun. This approach is specifically for projects preferring Bun over Node.js.
