Now it is time to learn how to use Node Version Manager in Linux. Even if you only need a single version of Node.js right now, we still recommend using nvm because it allows you to switch between different versions of Node (depending on the requirements of your project) with minimal hassle. It will show output as ‘ nvm‘ if the installation was successful. Using nvm (Node.js Version Manager) makes it easier to install and manage multiple versions of Node.js on a single local environment. Next, verify if the nvm has been installed on your system using the following command. The above auto-install script clones the nvm repository to ~/.nvm in your home directory and adds the required source commands to your shell startup scripts i.e ~/.bash_profile, ~/.zshrc, ~/.profile, or ~/.bashrc, depending on the shell program you are using as shown in the following screenshot.
