Node version managers
Tools to manage multiple released Node.js versions
A new release of Node.js is cut from the GitHub master branch every six months around April and October. Whenever a new odd-numbered version comes out, the most recent even version goes to long-term support, or LTS.
Node Version Manager is often a bash script used to manage multiple released Node.js versions. It allows you to perform operations like install, uninstall, switch version, etc.
