Problem
Multiple people ask about having two versions of
nodeinstalled. It is a bit subtle to do the full switch-over with potentially node, and npm, and npx, and globally installed packages. I often skip over the details and just suggest to "delete the other one".Switching from Homebrew in particular has been popular recently. See: #768
Solution
Add separate document with a walk-through of switching from Homebrew managed Node.js to
nmanaged Node.js.
