    Volta: JS Toolchains as Code. ⚡

  • nvm for Windows

    A node.js version management utility for Windows. Ironically written in Go.

  • prev to that it was nvm-windows. It's not using node to manage node runtimes, it's an executable written in go.

  • fnm

  • I've been using fnm. It's fast and works.

  • nvs has been working pretty flawlessly for me.
