SolidStart currently relies on Node.js APIs that Bun does not yet implement. The guide below uses Bun to initialize a project and install dependencies, but it uses Node.js to run the dev server.
Initialize a SolidStart app with create-solid.
terminal
bun create solid my-app

create-solid version 0.2.31

Welcome to the SolidStart setup wizard!

There are definitely bugs and some feature might not work yet.
If you encounter an issue, have a look at
https://github.com/solidjs/solid-start/issues and open a new one,
if it is not already tracked.
