# Module bundlers (Prisma ORM v6) (/docs/orm/v6/prisma-client/deployment/module-bundlers)

> For the complete Prisma documentation index, see [llms.txt](https://www.prisma.io/docs/llms.txt). A markdown version of any docs page is available by appending `.md` to its URL.

This page gives an overview of the most important things to be aware of when using a module bundler to bundle an application that uses Prisma Client.

Location: ORM > v6 > Prisma Client > Deployment > Module bundlers

## Overview [#overview]

*Module bundlers* bundle JavaScript modules into a single JavaScript file. Most bundlers work by copying over the JavaScript code from a variety of source files into the target file.

Since Prisma Client is not only based on JavaScript code, but also relies on the [**query engine binary file**](https://www.prisma.io/docs/orm/v6/more/internals/engines#the-query-engine-file) to be available, you need to make sure that your bundled code has access to the binary file.

> [!NOTE]
> As of [v6.16.0](https://pris.ly/release/6.16.0), Prisma ORM can be used without Rust engines in production applications. Learn more in the [No Rust engine](https://www.prisma.io/docs/orm/v6/prisma-client/setup-and-configuration/no-rust-engine) documentation.
> 
> **When enabled, your Prisma Client will be generated without a Rust-based query engine binary**:
> 
> ```prisma
> generator client {
>   provider   = "prisma-client-js" // or "prisma-client"
>   output     = "../src/generated/prisma"
>   engineType = "client"           // no Rust engine
> }
> ```
>
> Note that [driver adapters](https://www.prisma.io/docs/orm/v6/overview/databases/database-drivers#driver-adapters) are required if you want to use Prisma ORM without Rust engines.
> 
> You can [read about the performance and DX improvements](https://www.prisma.io/blog/prisma-orm-without-rust-latest-performance-benchmarks) of this change on our blog.

To do so, you can use plugins that let you copy over static assets:
