Can't manage to use different version of NPM with specific Node versions

[buondevid]

This is not an issue, more a request of clarification: is this possible with NVM? I want to match a different version of NPM for every Node version installed through NVM.

Thanks

It's possible with node and npm itself, by npm installing the version you want into each individual node version nvm manages.

It's not possible for nvm to switch npm versions, since the npm version exclusively follows the node install.
