NVM Install & Update Script
$ curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.2/install.sh | bash
Troubleshooting
After running the install script, if you get nvm: command not found
or see no feedback from your terminal after you type command -v nvm
, simply close your current terminal, open a new terminal, and try verifying again. Alternatively, you can run the following command for the different shells on the command line:
$ source ~/.bashrc
List of installed Node versions

$ nvm use <NODE_VERSION>
Uninstall the Node version
$ nvm uninstall <NODE_VERSION>
Set Node Version as default
