Simplify your node versioning workflow with nvm and this extension.

Features

This extension simplifies nvm workflow by:

• Automatically running nvm use on each terminal opened when an .nvmrc file exists in your workspace. Inspired by vscode-nvm
• Providing a command input hook to choose a version of node to run tasks against

Requirements

• To be able to pick different node versions, you must have nvm installed
• To have nvm use executed on terminal startup, you must have nvm installed along with a .nvmrc file in your workspace
