Bun here means the software documents Bun as a supported runtime, not only as a faster way to install packages. Bun runs much code written for Node.js, and software in this group usually supports Node.js as well, so a machine with either can run it. A record carries this value when the documentation names Bun for running the software itself. Hono and SvelteKit are examples.
17 projects need Bun installed, listed alphabetically. Mostly web frameworks, build tools and site and docs generators, of 9 categories in all. 222 records do not record this field, and cannot appear here either way. Counts only projects with momentum; the full list has the rest.
