Install a package under a different name

Install an npm package under a custom name with the npm: specifier and import it by that alias.

To install an npm package under an alias:

bun add my-custom-name@npm:zod

You can now import the zod package as my-custom-name.

index.ts

import { z } from "my-custom-name";

z.string();
