Bun natively supports `.json` imports.
```json package.json icon="file-json"
{
"name": "bun",
"version": "1.0.0",
"author": {
"name": "John Dough",
"email": "john@dough.com"
}
}
```
---
Import the file like any other source file.
```ts data.ts icon="/icons/typescript.svg"
import data from "./package.json";
data.name; // => "bun"
data.version; // => "1.0.0"
data.author.name; // => "John Dough"
```
---
Bun also supports [Import Attributes](https://github.com/tc39/proposal-import-attributes/) and [JSON modules](https://github.com/tc39/proposal-json-modules) syntax.
```ts data.ts icon="/icons/typescript.svg"
import data from "./package.json" with { type: "json" };
data.name; // => "bun"
data.version; // => "1.0.0"
data.author.name; // => "John Dough"
```
