Description

Hi there,

I have no relation to the bun team at all (and, am a bit daft on web stuff). I'm looking to change to bun from pnpm for performance reasons, but there's no way to do this through the corepack system today (which has been very kind to me, for what it's worth).

It would be very nice if I could use the corepack mechanism to change to bun, similar to how (p)npm are implemented today from yarn.

It looks like they have a 1.0 mark coming on September 7th 2023.

Research direction

Start by reviewing how Corepack currently supports npm, pnpm, and yarn, then compare Bun's package-manager interface using the linked Bun references. Done means Bun can be selected through the Corepack mechanism in the same general way as the existing package managers, with appropriate validation of that flow.
