Looks good. We’re publishing ours soon.
You should ditch nvm for Volta. It’s insanely better

Better yet, use asdf. It supports more than just node. I manage go, node, python, terraform, direnv, and many more with it.

What are some reasons to switch from nvm to Volta?

It's faster and cross-platform (Windows/Linux/MacOS). Switching version managers is trivial. If you don't like it, just switch back in the time it takes to uninstall a binary.

Last time I tried it, it totally broke my WebStorm setup (on Windows).

Of the alternatives I like fnm the most. It's a single binary, blazing fast and just works how you'd expect it to.

+1 for Volta. Finally switched to it for my own setup this week and it’s just so much easier. Big, big fan.

I have been watching Volta. It looks pretty great.
