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
