To add an npm package as a dependency, use bun add.
terminal
bun add zod
This will add the package to dependencies in package.json. By default, the ^ range specifier will be used, to indicate that any future minor or patch versions are acceptable.
package.json
{
	"dependencies": {
		"zod": "^3.0.0"
	}
}
To “pin” to an exact version of the package, use --exact. This will add the package to dependencies without the ^, pinning your project to the exact version you installed.
terminal
bun add zod --exact
To specify an exact version or a tag:
terminal
bun add zod@3.0.0
bun add zod@next
