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
