Node.js version management

Install and switch Node.js per project, with shell integration.

Installation

Open Settings → Node. Each supported major version has a row with an Install button. Stratos uses the official Node.js binaries — no nodebrew, no nvm, no recompiling from source.

Per-project version

Add a stratos.yml line:

node: "20"

The active version is written to ~/.zshrc (or ~/.bashrc) inside a clearly-marked block:

# >>> Stratos Node >>>
export PATH="$HOME/Library/Application Support/Stratos/node/20/bin:$PATH"
# <<< Stratos Node <<<

Open a new shell for the change to take effect.

Supported versions

Every active and LTS release from 18.x onward.

Verifying

node -v
npm -v
which node

The which node output should point inside the Stratos support directory.
