NVM – Node Version Management
I usually develop on Windows so I installed NVM for Windows from here, but if you’re on other OS I’m sure you can find a version that supports it, probably this is the answer.

You can use nvm and nvm for Windows to switch version of Node and NPM on the fly.

He actualizado node js y ahora no puedo usar mi propio código
Te recomendaría usar asdf(https://asdf-vm.com/) o nvm(https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm) si usas Linux o Mac. Si usas windows hay versión de nvm para windows(https://github.com/coreybutler/nvm-windows)

Has anybody built an offline version of Monkeytype from git on Linux?
Harder option: install nvm , and run ‘nvm use lts’. NVM I’ll manage your nodejs version and let you easily update/switch version

You can handle many Node versions at once and switch them automatically with nvm
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. I explain everything in a video, if you're interested you can watch it here: https://youtu.be/A-pbv5eKCDc Enjoy nvm!

Signal Desktop Migration / Backup w/ Conversation History (but no previews)
I used nvm (for Windows) (for Linux/MacOS else) to install node/npm for use. Then I used the v18 lts version of node to run this.

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.

Alternatively, a better way to manage Node.js releases on your machine is to use an environment management tool like Volta that can install and switch between multiple versions seamlessly.

Best practices for HarperDB projects using TypeScript
To use TypeScript you need Node.js installed, be sure to use the latest LTS version. You can check it by running node -v in your terminal. If you don't have it installed, you can download it here, or use a version manager like asdf, nvm, or even volta.

Do you think it is better to default to latest in Nodejs release?
I recommend to use the Volta tool chain manager. Built with Rust, is faster than NVM and allow to pin package and node versions, global binaries and pin project tool versions with automatic package.json pinned versions load.

Nvm or homebrew for Node install
Listing people's recommendations with links below. I'm glad I asked this question. I received a lot of good recommendations. Thanks All! * nvm (https://nvm.sh) - Simple to use and easy to follow instructions with more in-depth configuration for those that need it. Some experienced a slightly slower terminal. Supports nodjs, iojs, and node version per project/directory. * fnm (https://github.com/Schniz/fnm) - Built with speed in mind. It is like nvm, but faster. Also supports node version per project/directory. * Volta (https://volta.sh/) - Looks easy to use and has good documentation. * asdf (https://asdf-vm.com/) - Supports multiple runtimes and tools by adding plugins. Admittedly, is a bit confusing and more than I need right now (Node, Rust, Python, Ruby, etc.) * Homebrew (https://brew.sh/) - Not a version manager but can act like one by installing nvm, fnm, asdf, or others. Some additional configuration may be needed. * Proto (https://moonrepo.dev/proto) - Supports Bun, Deno, Node.js (npm, pnpm, yarn), Rust, and Go. Also good documentation. Setup looks a bit complex to me :/. * n (https://github.com/tj/n) - Supports Node and npm per project. Simple and to the point.

The next generation node version manager
I literally just started orchestrating a switch for my team from NVM to Volta because of our desire for our Node/npm version Manager to just get out of the way.

TypeScript tooling and ecosystem
Prefer Volta over NVM. Much better UX and its inherently cross-platform.
