Manage Multiple Node Versions with nvm [Mac, Windows, Linux - 2023]

If you're working on multiple projects, some might have different node version requirements. This happens a lot for Open Source contributors! Let's see how to quickly switch between them with a tool called nvm and leverage the .nvmrc file to make it 100% seamless! It's available on all OS, including Windows, Linux, and MacOS. Do not get confused though, Windows has its own version, slightly different from the one for Unix systems: - Windows: https://github.com/coreybutler/nvm-windows - Linux/MacOS: https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm In short, they both use nvm as a terminal command, so for basic usage you won't find many differences. For advanced users though, you may notice something. Make sure to read the docs in the README.md file of each repository. _______________________________ Hit like and subscribe for more content! :D Join the Discord community!
