The one that comes with Node? Duh. Or just `npm update -g npm` to bring it up to the latest.
> ...a dependency that only works on node 3.14
So I know you're making crap up now because there was no such version. Node jumped right from 0.12.x to 4.x, as a result of a fork and associated project politics. [1]
And I've been working with Node projects for nearly a decade. I don't see "only works on older-verion-of-Node x.y" almost ever. You're thinking of Python and Ruby.
`nvm` exists because, yes, sometimes you want to run an older project in its exact environment. And it's super easy to install new versions or test under different versions Just In Case there's an issue. Sometimes newer releases only work on the latest Node, so you need to upgrade Node to update to the latest-and-greatest.
But frankly it's worth using Node (and TypeScript) just to not have to ever touch PHP again. It was an is a nightmare fractal of bad design. I'm never going back.
Latest LTS. Why wouldn't you?
