Awful Upgrade Experience: Use node 11, wants node 14. Use node 14, wants node 11
I am using the official update guide to update one major version at a time. I am also using the best node-angular compatibility guide I could find in conjunction with nvm-windows to manage node versions.

3 Useful Node.js Version Managers
nvm can only be used in projects for macOS and Linux users. If you are Windows users, you can use nvm-windows, nodist or nvs.

I don't know why your comment got downvoted, but yeah there's a pretty neat & fast Nvm tool for windows written in Go.

I eventually stopped using a plugin manager
https://github.com/Schniz/fnm works pretty well with fish, btw. The main drawback is that it doesn't have a command to automatically install your global npm packages from the last version. But it is not too hard to make your own.

Linux: Best way to install node & npm
or, just use nvm (https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm) or fnm (https://github.com/Schniz/fnm). fnm is nice because it does not lag shell startup as much as nvm. these latter two options may be better for dev than production, just since it is mostly installed to your local environment

How to improve startup time?
Related to this, I have been using fnm as a drop-in replacement for nvm for years, possibly 44x times faster but can't vouch for the benchmark :)

Why my ZSH take too much time to load?
I agree with trying to lazyload these libs. Another helpful tip is I switched from nvm to fnm maybe half a dozen years ago and it is so much faster, I even alias nvm="fnm" and I am not someone that switches to rust things because "rust".

Asdf – the language tool version manager
This looks really promising. I love seeing these tools written in languages other than the thing they're targeting.
As an example I use fnm (https://github.com/Schniz/fnm) for managing JavaScript versions. It runs so fast (compared to nvm) I'm inclined to think something went wrong and it silently failed, but it never does!

What are some alternatives?
