Current behavior 😯

When I execute bun create solid, with SolidStart, TypeScript: Yes, and Template: basic as options, the resulting scaffolded project consists of a .gitignore file, an empty public folder, and a src folder that itself consists of both an empty components and an empty routes folder.

Expected behavior 🤔

The template should be copied from the repo, including all files.

Steps to reproduce 🕹

Steps:

  1. bun create solid
  2. Project type: SolidStart
  3. TypeScript: Yes
  4. Template: basic
Context 🔦

I would like to create a new SolidStart project with bun.

Research direction

Start by reproducing bun create solid with the SolidStart, TypeScript, and basic template options on the reported environment. Compare the generated project with the repository's basic template and identify why tracked files are omitted. Done means the scaffold includes all template files, including the expected contents of public and src.
