Bun aims for complete Node.js API compatibility. Most `npm` packages intended for `Node.js` environments will work with Bun out of the box; the best way to know for certain is to try it.
This page is updated regularly to reflect compatibility status of the latest version of Bun. The information below reflects Bun's compatibility with _Node.js v20_. If you run into any bugs with a particular package, please [open an issue](https://bun.sh/issues). Opening issues for compatibility bugs helps us prioritize what to work on next.
