NVM
nvm is a version manager for node.js, designed to be installed per-user, and invoked per-shell. nvm works on any POSIX-compliant shell (sh, dash, ksh, zsh, bash), in particular on these platforms: unix, macOS, and windows WSL.

Running either of the above commands downloads a script and runs it. The script clones the nvm repository to ~/.nvm
, and attempts to add the source lines from the snippet below to the correct profile file (~/.bash_profile
, ~/.zshrc
, ~/.profile
, or ~/.bashrc
).
export NVM_DIR="$([ -z "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME-}" ] && printf %s "${HOME}/.nvm" || printf %s "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/nvm")"
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" # This loads nvm
