Is your feature request related to a bug or issue?

No. This request does not address an existing bug; it simply extends the set of supported tools.


Alternatives

  • Continue supporting only npm, Yarn, and pnpm.
  • Introduce another emerging manager (e.g., Volta), although bun currently stands out for its performance and built‑in features.

Additional Context

  • bun is an all‑in‑one JavaScript/TypeScript runtime and package manager, featuring an ultra‑fast installer, built‑in bundler, and transpiler.
  • It delivers significant performance improvements over npm, Yarn, and pnpm by reducing installation times and speeding up script execution.
  • Supporting bun would enable developers to benefit from faster startup times and simplified workflows, aligning with the project’s goals of innovation and efficiency.
  • Implementation could involve detecting a bun.lockb file or recognizing bun install commands, and updating documentation and CI/CD scripts to include bun as an alternative.
