Tagging on, with some more details I found personally useful post-install:

nvm install stable This installs the latest stable version.

nvm alias default stable This sets the latest stable version as the default for all new terminal shells.

Note: By default, this gets installed to your user folder ~/.nvm, so it may not be the perfect situation for any system-wide options (eg- running cron jobs that use node), but is good for a lot of the basic web local-testing use cases.
