Installing Bun

For any web development project, Bun is an essential runtime environment.

NOTE

Used to be that Node.js was the standard, but Bun has quickly become the preferred choice for modern web development due to its speed and efficiency.

To install Bun, we recommend using mise. If you haven't installed mise yet, please refer to the Installing mise documentation.

Once mise is installed, you can install Bun by running the following command in your terminal:

mise use bun@latest -g

This command will install the latest version of Bun globally on your system. After the installation is complete, you can verify that Bun is installed correctly by running:

bun --version

It should display the version of Bun that you just installed such as 1.3.9. With Bun set up, you're now ready to start developing web applications!
