Js/Node/NVM/installing

On Mac

• The easiest way is to use homebrew (a package manager for mac)
  • go to: https://brew.sh/
  • There should be a shell script on the home page. Copy this text to your clipboard
  • open your terminal
  • paste the code from the homebrew website
  • hit enter
  • wait for the installation to compplete
  • run:
    • brew update
    • brew install nvm

If you get "command not found"

• Open/create your bash profile:
  • sudo nano ~/.bash_profile
    • (opens the file in nano)
  • add the following:
    • export NVM_DIR="$HOME/.nvm"
    • . "/usr/local/opt/nvm/nvm.sh"

On Windows

• Go to: https://github.com/coreybutler/nvm-windows
• Click the download link
• Download the zip of you choice
  • nvm-noinstall is for USB keys (i think)
  • just use nvm-setup
• Install (if applicable)
  • if so, restart the computer
