Help dependabot team to support bun

[DamienCassou]

What is the problem this feature would solve?

Many projects use github's dependabot to maintain dependencies up-to-date. It looks like the dependabot team doesn't have enough resources to introduce more package managers or eco-systems: dependabot/dependabot-core#6528 (comment).

What is the feature you are proposing to solve the problem?

If the Bun development team has some resources, it would make sense for the Bun community to get dependabot to support Bun.

What alternatives have you considered?

• not switching to Bun
• replace dependabot with renovate
• keep a yarn.lock around so dependabot can open update PRs and make sure to keep the Bun lock file in sync

I'd be willing to contribute in some way but honestly I have no idea what I'm doing

Hello @DamienCassou just came across this issue. Been said in your message all the bun resources are on the https://bun.sh website which you can look at which includes documentation and what they don’t support.

That being said if you have any questions, issues or anyhelp, feel free to ask.
