Installing dependencies

Installing dependencies is handled entirely through Bun. Do not use npm, pnpm, yarn, or any other package manager — they might break some native Bun dependencies.

If you're not already inside the repository, move into it:

cd node

Then install the dependencies:

bun install

Sometimes Bun doesn't automatically trust postinstall scripts for new repositories.

The warning might look like this:

Blocked 8 postinstalls. Run bun pm untrusted for details. If you see a warning about trust, run:

bun pm trust --all

This will allow Bun to build the necessary native modules.
