[bun init] Typescript -> Put bun-types Inside @types Folder

[mahdi-farnia]

As you know when a @types/* packages installed it goes to node_modules/@types/* folder. And every things works properly without reference directive (/// <reference types="bun-types") syntax or adding types to tsconfig compilerOptions.

When i tried to init a new project using bun init every things worked properly except typings: Cannot find name Bun. Until I figured out that typescript did not find bun-types/types.d.ts file, and i add it to compilerOptions and error gone.

I think bun-types should goes to @types folder instead of node_modules top level.

OS: MacOS 12.5
Version: 0.1.7 (latest right now)
Typescript Version: 4.7.4

There are 2 ways:

• Add bun-types to DefinitelyTyped, which would make compatibility and maintanance much worse because we would have no control over it
• bun add would automatically move the package to @types

second one is the best option ( i think )
