-A template can take a number of forms:
-
-```bash
-$ bun create <template>         # an official template (remote)
-$ bun create <username>/<repo>  # a GitHub repo (remote)
-$ bun create <local-template>   # a custom template (local)
-```
-
-Running `bun create` performs the following steps:
-
-- Download the template (remote templates only)
-- Copy all template files into the destination folder. By default Bun will _not overwrite_ any existing files. Use the `--force` flag to overwrite existing files.
-- Install dependencies with `bun install`.
-- Initialize a fresh Git repo. Opt out with the `--no-git` flag.
-- Run the template's configured `start` script, if defined.
-
-<!-- ## Official templates
-
-The following official templates are available.
-
-```bash
-bun create next ./myapp
-bun create react ./myapp
-bun create svelte-kit ./myapp
-bun create elysia ./myapp
-bun create hono ./myapp
-bun create kingworld ./myapp
-```
-
-Each of these corresponds to a directory in the [bun-community/create-templates](https://github.com/bun-community/create-templates) repo. If you think a major framework is missing, please open a PR there. This list will change over time as additional examples are added. To see an up-to-date list, run `bun create` with no arguments.

-
-## GitHub repos
-
-A template of the form `<username>/<repo>` will be downloaded from GitHub.
-
-```bash

-
-Complete GitHub URLs will also work:

-
-Bun installs the files as they currently exist current default branch (usually `main`). Unlike `git clone` it doesn't download the commit history or configure a remote.
-
-## Local templates
-
-{% callout %}
-**⚠️ Warning** — Unlike remote templates, running `bun create` with a local template will delete the entire destination folder if it already exists! Be careful.
-{% /callout %}
-Bun's templater can be extended to support custom templates defined on your local file system. These templates should live in one of the following directories:
-
-- `$HOME/.bun-create/<name>`: global templates
-- `<project root>/.bun-create/<name>`: project-specific templates
-
-{% callout %}
-**Note** — You can customize the global template path by setting the `BUN_CREATE_DIR` environment variable.
-{% /callout %}
-
-To create a local template, navigate to `$HOME/.bun-create` and create a new directory with the desired name of your template.
-
-```bash
-$ cd $HOME/.bun-create
-$ mkdir foo
-$ cd foo
-```
-
-Then, create a `package.json` file in that directory with the following contents:
-
-```json
-{
-  "name": "foo"
-}
-```
-
-You can run `bun create foo` elsewhere on your file system to verify that Bun is correctly finding your local template.

-{% details summary="How `bun create` works" %}
-
-When you run `bun create ${template} ${destination}`, here’s what happens:
-
-IF remote template
-
-1. GET `registry.npmjs.org/@bun-examples/${template}/latest` and parse it
-2. GET `registry.npmjs.org/@bun-examples/${template}/-/${template}-${latestVersion}.tgz`
-3. Decompress & extract `${template}-${latestVersion}.tgz` into `${destination}`
-
-   - If there are files that would overwrite, warn and exit unless `--force` is passed
-
-IF GitHub repo
-
-1. Download the tarball from GitHub’s API
-2. Decompress & extract into `${destination}`
-
-   - If there are files that would overwrite, warn and exit unless `--force` is passed
-
-ELSE IF local template
-
-1. Open local template folder
-2. Delete destination directory recursively
-3. Copy files recursively using the fastest system calls available (on macOS `fcopyfile` and Linux, `copy_file_range`). Do not copy or traverse into `node_modules` folder if exists (this alone makes it faster than `cp`)
-
-4. Parse the `package.json` (again!), update `name` to be `${basename(destination)}`, remove the `bun-create` section from the `package.json` and save the updated `package.json` to disk.
-   - IF Next.js is detected, add `bun-framework-next` to the list of dependencies
-   - IF Create React App is detected, add the entry point in /src/index.{js,jsx,ts,tsx} to `public/index.html`
-   - IF Relay is detected, add `bun-macro-relay` so that Relay works
-5. Auto-detect the npm client, preferring `pnpm`, `yarn` (v1), and lastly `npm`
-6. Run any tasks defined in `"bun-create": { "preinstall" }` with the npm client
-7. Run `${npmClient} install` unless `--no-install` is passed OR no dependencies are in package.json
-8. Run any tasks defined in `"bun-create": { "preinstall" }` with the npm client
-9. Run `git init; git add -A .; git commit -am "Initial Commit";`
-
-   - Rename `gitignore` to `.gitignore`. NPM automatically removes `.gitignore` files from appearing in packages.
-   - If there are dependencies, this runs in a separate thread concurrently while node_modules are being installed
-   - Using libgit2 if available was tested and performed 3x slower in microbenchmarks
