nvm.fish is a Node.js version manager written entirely in Fish shell script, letting users install, switch, and manage multiple Node.js versions. It supports .nvmrc and .node-version files, tab completion, and XDG Base Directory conventions.
Use cases
- manage multiple node.js versions in fish shell
- switch node versions per project with .nvmrc
- install latest or lts node release from the command line
- set a default node version for new shells
- auto-install default npm packages with each node install
When to choose
- you use fish shell and want a pure-fish nvm alternative
- you need .nvmrc/.node-version support with tab completion
- you want a lightweight version manager with no setup
When to avoid
- you use bash, zsh, or another POSIX shell
- you need the full nvm-sh feature set or POSIX compatibility
