Volta – JavaScript Tool Manager

Volta is billed as a hassle-free JavaScript tool manager.

Ensure everyone in your project has the same tools—without interfering with their workflow. With Volta, you can select a Node engine once and then stop worrying about it. You can switch between projects and stop having to manually switch between Nodes. You can install npm package binaries in your toolchain without having to periodically reinstall them or figure out why they’ve stopped working. Volta also lets you install your favorite package binaries as command-line tools, without worrying about them interfering with your development projects.

Volta lets you choose your Node engine and package manager for a project once with one command:

This is free and open source software.

Features include:

• Speed – install and run any JS tool quickly and seamlessly! Volta is built in Rust and ships as a snappy static binary.
• Seamless, per-project version switching.
• Support for multiple package managers.
• Stable tool installation—no reinstalling on every Node upgrade.
• Extensibility hooks for site-specific customization.
• Cross-platform support – runs under Linux, all Unix shells, and Windows.
