orig edit doc: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1hIdpisLh-nLNY65fqF-ZpGpNGjBq4whhsvcvCdfRbx4/edit?usp=sharing some problems we need to fix in future edits: --no steps for compiling from source, (whereas the RHEL versions of this doc do?) --collapse commands for installing nodejs and npm into one for apt --Doens't use master github for NVM so instructions will deprecate with age. --Title/topic reconciliation (seems to apply to all node docs) --call out NVM as method preferred by devs and sysadmins b/c of version control. ---I really think from a conceptual level this doc needs more details since its covering three different install methods with limited context as to which one is correct for the user. Same problem on all docs. ---missing source .bashrc. in the NVM steps. If they did this, wouldn't need to close and reopen terminal simply to run commands. ---example has you installing literally the earliest version of NVM? If you're going to pick one to install, at least do one that is 4.x.x or above.

Passes turk testing, but there are some serious update needs on this before it is production ready.
