To install create a folder somewhere in your filesystem with the "`nvm.sh`" file inside it. I put mine in a folder called "`nvm`". |

### Install script |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To install you could use the [install script](https://github.com/creationix/nvm/blob/master/install.sh) (requires Git) using cURL: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
curl https://raw.github.com/creationix/nvm/master/install.sh | sh |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
or Wget: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
wget -qO- https://raw.github.com/creationix/nvm/master/install.sh | sh |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<sub>The script clones the Nvm repository to `~/.nvm` and adds the source line to your profile (`~/.bash_profile` or `~/.profile`).</sub> |
