This will ship as part of the Bun v1.2.19 release, which we are aiming for tonight.

There is a Windows-only bug in the isolated install mode blocking us from using isolated installs ourselves in the bun repo, and we need to fix that before we can release this.

If you want to try this early, you can run `bun upgrade --canary` and `bun install --linker=isolated` or put `install.linker = "isolated"` in bunfig.toml.

Isolated installs are a significant performance improvement on Windows (10x, sometimes 20x faster installs) and a minor positive or neutral performance impact on macOS and Linux. More importantly, they make using bun install in monorepos a lot more reliable by preventing dependencies from loading versions of other dependencies they did not specify in their own package.json.

Happy to answer any questions about Bun

Really loving Bun these days. Was really pleasantly surprised using their shell scripting API in typescript - single file, shebang line, straightforward DSL, support for piping data here and there.

Really, really nice and ergonomic. Made a few utility scripts today and enjoyed it much better than bash.

https://bun.com/docs/runtime/shell

    #!/usr/bin/env -S deno run
    import { z } from "npm:zod";
    import { Webview } from "jsr:@webview/webview";

Recently I migrated some small bash scripts to Js thanks to bunjs, chose it because its simplicity, speed and nice out-of-the-box features (db scripts without external deps). Quite happy with it, now I dont to relearn bash syntax every few months when I need to do some minor changes. Also, Javascript is prob the language that llvms understand the best which is a cool thing on these days.

Can someone explain what this does differently to the status quo under the hood?

Bun is slowly becoming the all-in-one solution for the js ecosystem, what a talented beast Jarred is

So can I use bun now in pnpm monorepo without problems? I like bun and want to try it out more but also, I don't want to do the hassle of migrating only to find out some functionalities are missing eg. ability to run specific scripts on specific packages in monorepo.
