Description
Currently, we're using npm. Unfortunately, npm is known for its slow package install speeds, impacting developer experience.
Also: We can benefit from faster application builds both localy and in ci tasks.
Goals:
- Evaluate using bun or pnpm as the new package manager
- Document reasons for / against the package managers and the final decision in an Architecture decision record (ADR)
- Migrate the App to use the new package manager
- Migrate the CI Pipeline (mainly the Dockerfile) to also build the app with the new package manager

Research direction
Start by reviewing the current npm setup and Dockerfile, then compare bun and pnpm for install and build performance in local and CI use. Record the trade-offs and final choice in an Architecture Decision Record, migrate the app and Docker-based CI pipeline, and verify that the application builds successfully through both workflows.
