hackathon VS asdf-nodejs

The way I see it - it's a really nice way to make modules out of your Docker files (e.g. we need to install a tool and we need to run apt-get + some config, etc). And a simpler, JSON syntax to apply those modules on top of a base image.

I love the experience so far, we've done a few features (modules) - e.g. this one to install `nvtop` to see GPU utilization https://github.com/iterative/features/blob/main/src/nvtop/in...

The whole CUDA + nvtop + (some other tools) for an example project to be run on a remote machine via VS Code becomes like this:

https://github.com/shcheklein/hackathon/blob/main/.devcontai...

And that's enough to run ML training on GH Codespaces with GPU support. Super cool experience.

I have used a similar tool asdf before, but the previous experience of using asdf was not very good (I don’t mean to step on it~, the ASDF ecosystem is very strong), vfox now supports a lot of plugins, and can already manage the versions of most common mainstream languages.

Not nix based, but I really like https://github.com/jdx/mise too to manage dev tools.

It’s a modern version of https://github.com/asdf-vm/asdf written in Rust.

That's what I would suggest as well. WSL2 and use asdf[1] to manage the erlang/elixir versions.

echo "Installing nodejs with asdf" asdf plugin add nodejs https://github.com/asdf-vm/asdf-nodejs.git asdf install nodejs latest asdf global nodejs latest

However this is still a neat script OP! I was looking for something like this when installing Go for the first time and was contemplating between goenv, gvm, and asdf before settling on brew.

Have you tried this? https://github.com/asdf-vm/asdf-nodejs#nvmrc-and-node-versio...

Also lts, lts-hydrogen, etc are available to install I can see when running `asdf list all nodejs`

How does this compare to nvm or asdf?

I'm not too familiar with installing Ruby on Mac, but you could try using a ruby version manager (like rbenv or asdf).

For more information, or if you need help on this awesome tool, don’t hesitate to head over to asdf-vm.com. Also, feel free to star the GitHub Repository of asdf to support the team behind this project. 😉

nvm was adding a huge delay to my shell startup and starting node. There are faster ones out there like n https://github.com/tj/n or fnm https://github.com/Schniz/fnm I use fnm there are also similar tools that work with multiple languages like asdf https://github.com/asdf-vm/asdf
