Breaking changes

• Remove the --shell CLI flag. Since nve already runs in a shell, this flag is not needed. Shell-specific features (such as variables, globbing, etc.) work as expected since those are performed before nve is called.

Bug fixes

• Fix executing yarn

Features

• Improve the internal directory structure used to cache the Node.js binary
• Cleanup temporary files when Node.js download fails

Bug fixes

• Executing npm, yarn and pnpm was not working properly, for example when doing global installs (npm i -g ...).

Features

Features

• Ensure Node.js binaries are not corrupted by checking their checksums
• Use cache when offline (no network connection)

Breaking changes

• When nve is run without any command, it prints the available Node.js version. This allows you to find the latest available Node.js versions. If you also want to cache the initial Node.js binary download, you must now use nve VERSION node --version instead of nve VERSION.

Features

• Make Node.js binary download twice faster on Linux and MacOS
• Improve error messages
