using bunx vite will basically run vite in node and not bun. Same with TSC here. You need force bun with --bun

bun also has bulit in support for typescript compling so you dont need to run TSC. Whats the reasoning for it?

I want to publish reusable libraries for others from some of my projects. Thus I want to transpire to *.js that is non-bundled, non-minified for easy reuse, tree shaking, etc.
I guess you'd recommend that I use https://bun.sh/docs/bundler? I guess that can be used for libraries and not just end user React apps?

Correct working on getting this to work on nx-bun but you can use cli for it
bun build ./index.tsx --outdir ./out

Read comment below i think you could change this to the following
| "commands": ["bunx tsc --watch", "bunx nodemon dist/server.js"] | |
| "commands": ["bun run --watch server.ts"] |

Nife to change to force bun. Bun as a package manager is supper quick. But they also limit to approved postinstall via bun install. It can get 2 to 4x the speed. But this is what I was referring to on NX. You can use bun as PM people seeing instant result which is strange still |

Now you are running it in actual bun (vite etc) you shouldn't need node here anymore
Hacked in bun into the nx workflows and CI and docker build. Seems to produce a 30% speed increase.
Unfortunately the docker build is failing currently, probably because of nx incompatibility with bun.
I've mentioned the issue as well as proposing that NX support bun here:
