SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps teams convert existing Node.js projects to the Bun runtime by analyzing dependencies, configurations, build and test pipelines, and identifying compatibility risks before making changes.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Dependency Compatibility Analysis: Reads package.json and identifies native or problematic modules, mapping them to recommended Bun-compatible alternatives.
  • Configuration & Build Guidance: Recommends updates to package.json scripts, engines, tsconfig, lockfile handling, and build/test tooling to run under Bun.
  • CI/CD and Verification: Provides CI examples, verification steps, rollback procedures, and workspace guidance for monorepos and single-package repositories.
  • Use Case: Migrate an npm/yarn/pnpm application or monorepo to Bun 1.0+, ensuring tests, builds, and CI continue to function.

Quick Start

Analyze package.json, list incompatible native modules with suggested replacements, and generate a BUN_MIGRATION_REPORT.md summarizing required config changes and verification steps.

FAQPage Schema
How do I migrate a Node.js project to Bun?

Migrate Node.js projects to Bun by analyzing dependencies, configurations, and test pipelines for compatibility. The process updates package.json scripts, tsconfig, and lockfiles while identifying native module incompatibilities to ensure builds and tests run under Bun 1.0+.

What Node.js dependencies are incompatible with Bun?

Incompatible Node.js dependencies are typically native or problematic modules. Dependency compatibility analysis reads package.json to identify these modules and maps them to recommended Bun-compatible alternatives to prevent migration failures.

Can I migrate a monorepo with npm or pnpm workspaces to Bun?

Yes, you can migrate monorepos using npm, yarn, or pnpm workspaces to Bun. The migration handles workspace configurations, processes lockfile conversions, and provides specific workspace guidance to ensure single-package and monorepo structures function correctly.

How do I update package.json and tsconfig for Bun compatibility?

Update package.json and tsconfig for Bun compatibility by adjusting build scripts, engines, and test tooling configurations. The migration process recommends specific updates to ensure these files align with Bun 1.0+ runtime requirements and execution environments.

What are the limitations when migrating Node.js CI pipelines to Bun?

Limitations when migrating Node.js CI pipelines to Bun include native module incompatibilities that require replacement dependencies. The migration provides CI examples, verification steps, and rollback procedures to manage these constraints and ensure continuous integration stability.

Do I need a migration report to convert Node.js to Bun?

A migration report is generated to summarize required configuration changes, incompatible dependencies, and verification steps. This BUN_MIGRATION_REPORT.md document outlines the necessary actions to safely convert your Node.js project to the Bun runtime.
