Advanced Settings

Additional configuration options for your projects.

Node Version

Specify which Node version to use for this project:

• Auto: Use system default Node version

• Specific Version: Specify a version (e.g., v18, v20, v22)

• .nvmrc: Read from project's .nvmrc file

Nodev requires the specified Node version to be installed on your system. Use nvm or fnm to manage multiple versions.

Custom Dev Command

Override the default development command:

• Leave empty to use the default (npm run dev, yarn dev, etc.)

• Enter a custom command like npm start or node server.js

• Include any necessary arguments or flags

Port Configuration

Set which port your development server uses:

• Auto: Let Nodev detect from framework config

• Custom: Specify a port number (1025-65535)

Nodev automatically switches ports if your preferred port is in use, so you never have to manually resolve port conflicts. This is one of the key benefits of using Nodev.
