Original issue from nvm-sh/nvm nvm-sh#3257

Implement nvm as a compiled binary instead of shell scripts to improve performance and reliability.

Required features:

  1. Core functionality:
    • Version management
    • Installation/uninstallation
    • Version switching
    • Alias management
  2. Shell integration
  3. Cross-platform support
  4. Migration path from script version
  5. Performance improvements
  6. Comprehensive testing

Technical considerations:

  • Choice of implementation language (Go/Rust)
  • Binary distribution
  • Shell completion
  • Environment management
  • Backward compatibility

This is an advanced task that requires:

  • Systems programming experience
  • Understanding of shell integration
  • Cross-platform development
  • Performance optimization
