Worked with me with this command bun x shadcn@latest init Can anyone explain why?

Worked with me with this command bun x shadcn@latest init Can anyone explain why?

bun x shadcn@latest init

This works, but there is no “bun” related file in the next.js project folder?

Same issue, seemingly out of the blue was working fine two days ago

Dont write the name project with capital letters.

[andrewrgarcia]

Easy fix! Type npx clear-npx-cache and try again.

This worked for me. Thank you !

Most of these solutions don't seem to work except the original, use the bun x command rather than the bunx alias.

When I installed bun via brew, I encountered this error. After uninstalling it with brew and installing it via curl, the issue was resolved.

bun x shadcn@latest init ONLY USE LOWER CASE characters and - !!

[karthickpalanivel]

Dont write the name project with capital letters.

worked for me

[eduardoddmg]

project next can't be uppercase name folder

[gordysc]

I hit this error with the above as well. If I removed the --bun flag it works just fine:

bunx shadcn@latest init

[CologneX]

i tested multiple times, following with @ilamAbi and @wildnhl solutions:

• Lowercase only: My-App becomes my-app.
• No spaces: Use hyphens (-) instead (e.g., my-new-project).
• Allowed characters: Only letters, numbers, hyphens (-), and underscores (_).
• Invalid start: Cannot begin with a dot (.) or an underscore (_).

for me removing --bun worked and anything else didn't

It's right, because you tried capital letters before it.

You cannot use ./ as your file name. This is also one of the reasons for this error.
