Description

According to https://docs.nodesource.com/docs/nsolid/quickstart/local, nsolid is installed and updated via

$ sudo apt-get install nsolid -y

This, however, isn't a really easy approach as users don't get used to doing it using Node.js. In my opinion, we have two ways of solving it:

  • Include nsolid to nvm, volta and other Node.js version managers
  • Include a nsolid --update that automatically updates the binary via command line.

What do you folks think about it? @brycebaril @edsadr @trevnorris @santigimeno
