- How To Install NVM on Mac / macOS
Ready to manage multiple Node.js versions effortlessly on your Mac or macOS system? NVM (Node Version Manager) is the perfect solution, allowing you to switch between Node.js versions with ease and flexibility. In this step-by-step guide, we'll walk you through the process of installing NVM on your Mac, enabling you to take full control of your Node.js environment and streamline your development workflow.
Follow these simple steps to install NVM on your Mac or macOS system:
1. *Open Terminal:*
- Launch the Terminal application on your Mac. You can find it in the Applications folder or by using Spotlight Search (Command + Spacebar) and typing "Terminal."
2. *Install NVM via Homebrew (Recommended):*
- If you have Homebrew installed on your Mac, you can use it to install NVM effortlessly.
- In the Terminal, run the following command to install NVM:
```
brew install nvm
```
3. *Manually Install NVM (Alternative Method):*
- If you prefer to install NVM manually, you can download and run the NVM installation script from the official NVM repository on GitHub.
- Visit the NVM repository at github.com/nvm... and follow the instructions in the README to download and install NVM manually.
4. *Verify NVM Installation:*
- Once NVM is installed, verify that it's correctly set up on your system. In the Terminal, type:
```
nvm --version
```
- If NVM is installed properly, you should see the version number displayed in the Terminal.
5. *Set Node.js Default Version (Optional):*
- If you have multiple Node.js versions installed via NVM, you can set a default version to use.
- Run the following command to set a default Node.js version (replace `version` with the desired version number):
```
nvm alias default version
```
6. *Install Node.js Versions:*
- With NVM installed, you can easily install and manage multiple Node.js versions on your Mac.
- Use the following command to install a specific Node.js version (replace `version` with the desired version number):
```
nvm install version
```
7. *Switch Between Node.js Versions:*
- Once you have multiple Node.js versions installed, you can switch between them effortlessly using NVM.
- Use the command `nvm use version` to switch to a specific Node.js version for your current Terminal session.
By following these steps, you've successfully installed NVM on your Mac or macOS system, empowering you to manage Node.js versions seamlessly and adapt your development environment to your project requirements. Whether you're building web applications, APIs, or server-side scripts, NVM ensures that you have the flexibility to work with the Node.js version that best suits your needs.
