## NVM version for different projects

A `.nvmrc` file makes it easy to lock a specific version of Node for different projects. For this, we need to create the `.nvmrc` file in the root directory of the project and specify the required node version in it. If the version currently being used is the version needed for the project then you can create the file using the command

```bash
node --version >.nvmrc
```

Then run the `nvm install` to install or `nvm use` to activate that version. These can be called from anywhere inside the project
