If not, go download the Node.js installer.\r\n\r\nSo, is this a `node` version manager?\r\n\r\nI use [`nvm`](https://github.com/creationix/nvm) to manage multiple node versions [across Linux servers](https://github.com/creationix/nvm/issues/682) as well as compiling `node` from source, as it makes my life easier and I don't have to poke around to see the idiomatic (best way) to `yum` or `apt` get node compatible binaries for a specific platform.\r\n\r\n"}}
