'Install a specific version of node and npm using brew (or not using brew)
I'm trying to set my environment to node v14.18.2 and NPM 7.24.2.
When I brew install node I get npm 8.5.2 and node v17.7.2.
If I change to node@14 formula:
brew unlink node
brew link --overwrite node@14
This gives me node v14.19.1 and npm 6.14.16.
How can I get the exact versions of npm and node I want using brew?
Alternatively, is brew not the way to go for what I'm trying to do?

I used nvm instead. First install nvm curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.1/install.sh | bash.
Switch to a new terminal.
nvm install 14.18.2
nvm use 14.18.2
npm install -g [email protected]
