+
+To add an npm package as an optional dependency, use the `--optional` flag.
+
+```sh terminal icon="terminal"
+bun add zod --optional
+```
+
+---
+
+This adds the package to `optionalDependencies` in `package.json`.
+
+```json package.json icon="file-json"
+{
+  "optionalDependencies": {
+    "zod": "^4.0.0" // [!code ++]
+  }
+}
+```

+See [`bun install`](/pm/cli/install).
