| Installing nvm | 15 |
FreeSewing is built with Node.js, a JavaScript runtime.
You'll need to install Node.js on your system, and to do so, we'll
use nvm, short for Node Version Manager.
Using nvm has a number of benefits in comparison with installing Node.js from
the Node.js website, or from a package that came with macOS.
- You can easily switch between different Node.js versions
- Everything gets installed in your home folder, avoiding permission problems
To setup nvm, follow the install instructions in the nvm
README.
After the installation, try running the following command:
nvm
If all goes well, it should show you the nvm help.
If you get nvm: command not found or something similar, close the current terminal
window, and open a new one. Now nvm should be found.
