nvm Defaults and .nvmrc
Configure default Node versions and project-level version pinning with nvm.
Workflow
-
Set the default Node version using an alias:
nvm alias default 20 # Or use an LTS alias nvm alias default lts/iron -
Create or update .nvmrc in the project root:
# Pin to a specific version echo "20.11.0" > .nvmrc # Or use an LTS alias echo "lts/iron" > .nvmrc -
Enable shell auto-switching if requested (see auto-use examples per shell).
-
Verify the configuration works:
# Open a new shell, then: nvm current # Should show the default version cd /path/to/project node -v # Should match .nvmrc version
Important: Keep .nvmrc consistent across team repos to avoid version drift. Basic install/use belongs to nvm-usage-basics.
