SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps developers bridge JavaScript interfaces to Zig-based Bun bindings by defining .classes.ts and implementing behavior in Zig, enabling seamless interop and API exposure.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Define JS bindings via .classes.ts to describe the public API surface.
  • Implement the runtime logic in Zig (.zig) and connect it to the generated glue code.
  • Use Case: Add a new Bun API binding backed by Zig, then expose it to JavaScript with a cohesive, cross-language interface.

Quick Start

Create a .classes.ts descriptor with define({ ... }), implement the corresponding .zig binding, and update generated_classes_list.zig to register the new API, then build to generate the bindings.

FAQPage Schema
How do I expose Zig code to JavaScript in Bun?

You expose Zig code to JavaScript in Bun by defining the API surface in a .classes.ts file and implementing the runtime logic in a .zig file. This bridges the two languages so your native code is callable from JS.

What is the process for adding new Bun API bindings backed by Zig?

Adding new Bun API bindings requires creating a .classes.ts interface descriptor, implementing the logic in a .zig file, and updating generated_classes_list.zig to register the API. Building the project then generates the necessary glue code.

How does the .classes.ts file work with Zig bindings?

The .classes.ts file uses a define({ ... }) descriptor to declare the public JavaScript API surface. This descriptor is paired with a Zig implementation to generate cross-language glue code and expose the API to JS.

Do I need to manually update the build system when creating JavaScript to Zig bindings?

Yes, when creating JavaScript to Zig bindings you must manually update the binding registry. You need to update generated_classes_list.zig so the build system recognizes and exposes the new API to JavaScript.

Can I define Bun API bindings without writing cross-language definitions?

No, you cannot define Bun API bindings without cross-language definitions. The process inherently requires defining the interface in .classes.ts and implementing the behavior in Zig to ensure seamless interop and API exposure.
