You install nvm first (Node Version Manager):
https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm
Then you say nvm install <version>.
And when you want to upgrade... it's as easy as nvm install <version>
And you can switch between Node versions:
nvm use <version>`
And by adding a .nvmrc file into the root of your project, you can wire up your shell to automatically switch to the version of Node.js specified in the .nvmrc file.

I'm trying to set my environment to node v14.18.2 and NPM 7.24.2.
When I brew install node I get npm 8.5.2 and node v17.7.2.
If I change to node#14 formula:
brew unlink node
brew link --overwrite node#14
This gives me node v14.19.1 and npm 6.14.16.
How can I get the exact versions of npm and node I want using brew?
Alternatively, is brew not the way to go for what I'm trying to do?
I used nvm instead. First install nvm curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.1/install.sh | bash.
Switch to a new terminal.
nvm install 14.18.2
nvm use 14.18.2
npm install -g npm#7.24.2
node -v: v8.10.0
npm -v: 3.5.2
While running npm install -g #vue/cli or sudo npm install -g #vue/cli I get the error below and failed to download Vue CLI
You are using a rather old version of npm. The current version is 6.9.0, and the packages you are working with are asking for npm >= 5.5.1.
You need to update your node version, if possible always use latest node version
Nodejs version 14.4.
And if you have project that required different node version then use
NVM - node version manager
Just use sudo for global install
sudo npm install -g #vue/cli
According to this page:
https://docs.npmjs.com/downloading-and-installing-node-js-and-npm
it says:
To publish and install packages to and from the public npm registry or
your company's npm Enterprise registry, you must install Node.js and
the npm command line interface using either a Node version manager or
a Node installer.
Then gives npm install -g npm which won't work cos npm isn't installed.
nvm doesn't work:
nvm install npm
Version 'npm' not found - try `nvm ls-remote` to browse available versions.
Clicking on the nvm link takes you to the nvm GitHub page.
Half way down I found this:
nvm install-latest-npm
which fails with:
nvm install-latest-npm
Attempting to upgrade to the latest working version of npm...
Unable to obtain npm version.
Any suggestions?
nvm is for installing node not npm, npm will be installed
What you're doing with nvm install npm, is attempting to install a node version called npm.
Do nvm install 14, let it run, check for errors, then once installed your have npm.
Just run these scripts and you are good to go.
sudo apt update
sudo apt install nodejs
It installs nodejs as well as npm.

For Node.js Upgrade:
Linux/Mac:
The module n makes version-management easy:
sudo npm install n -g
For the latest stable version:
sudo n stable
For the latest version:
sudo n latest
Windows:
Just reinstall node from the .msi in Windows from the node website.
For NPM Upgrade:
Kindly go through npm documentation for windows update.
For Linux/Mac:
You can upgrade to the latest version of npm using:
npm install -g npm#latest
Or upgrade to the most recent release:
npm install -g npm#next
managing node versions is easy with nvmfor linux or nvm for windows.
the docs for how to install them are available at their respective github repos.
Try to install the nvm first.
Nvm is a script-based node version manager. You can install it easily with a curl and bash one-liner as described in the https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm. It's also available on Homebrew.
Assuming you have successfully installed nvm. The following will install the latest version of the node.
$ nvm install node --reinstall-packages-from=node
