Install node version 16 on M1 Apple mac

For new Apple M1 silicon mac-books, how can we install node on processor x86_64 arch.

According to node.js download page, they don't provide the mac installer for x86_64 processors. Please refer the download page - https://nodejs.org/en/download.

Note: Node Mac Installer only support ARM64 processor.

I have tried Rosetta terminal options, but not able to install node@16 with x86_64 arch on M1 mac machine. Please provide any suggestions to solve this problem.

You can do brew install node@16, but it requires some PATH environment variable hacks.

I'd recommend nvm or asdf plus nodejs plugin
