Install, switch, and list Node.js versions using core nvm commands.
List available remote versions:
nvm ls-remote # All available versions
nvm ls-remote --lts # Only LTS releases
nvm ls-remote | grep v20 # Filter specific major version
Install a Node version:
nvm install 20 # Latest v20.x
nvm install 20.11.0 # Exact version
nvm install --lts # Latest LTS release
nvm install node # Latest current release
Switch between versions:
nvm use 20 # Switch to v20.x
nvm use --lts # Switch to latest LTS
nvm use system # Use system-installed Node
List installed versions and verify:
nvm ls # Show installed versions
nvm current # Show active version
node -v # Confirm active version
Note: For default version or .nvmrc, use the nvm-defaults-and-nvmrc skill. LTS is recommended for production stability.
