Install or upgrade nvm from the official source using script, git, or manual methods.
Identify platform and shell (macOS, Linux, WSL, Alpine; bash/zsh/fish).
Install via curl or wget:
# Using curl
curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.40.1/install.sh | bash
# Using wget
wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.40.1/install.sh | bash
Verify the profile was updated (the script writes to ~/.bashrc, ~/.zshrc, or ~/.profile):
# Required lines in your profile:
export NVM_DIR="$HOME/.nvm"
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh"
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/bash_completion" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/bash_completion"
Verify installation:
# Restart terminal, then:
nvm --version
Override PROFILE if the auto-detection picked the wrong file:
PROFILE=/path/to/custom/profile curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.40.1/install.sh | bash
