Scaffold an empty Bun project with the interactive `bun init` command.
```bash
$ bun init
bun init helps you get started with a minimal project and tries to
guess sensible defaults. Press ^C anytime to quit.
package name (quickstart):
entry point (index.ts):
Done! A package.json file was saved in the current directory.
+ index.ts
+ .gitignore
+ tsconfig.json (for editor auto-complete)
+ README.md
To get started, run:
bun run index.ts
```
Press `enter` to accept the default answer for each prompt, or pass the `-y` flag to auto-accept the defaults.
{% details summary="How `bun init` works" %}
`bun init` is a quick way to start a blank project with Bun. It guesses with sane defaults and is non-destructive when run multiple times.
It creates:
- a `package.json` file with a name that defaults to the current directory name
- a `tsconfig.json` file or a `jsconfig.json` file, depending if the entry point is a TypeScript file or not
- an entry point which defaults to `index.ts` unless any of `index.{tsx, jsx, js, mts, mjs}` exist or the `package.json` specifies a `module` or `main` field
- a `README.md` file
If you pass `-y` or `--yes`, it will assume you want to continue without asking questions.
At the end, it runs `bun install` to install `@types/bun`.
