CONTRIBUTING.md says development should use Node.js ~20.19.0 because of an upstream development dependency issue.

However, the repository’s .nvmrc currently contains:

20

When running:

nvm install
nvm use

this may install/use a newer Node 20.x version, such as 20.20.x, which appears to be outside the ~20.19.0 range.

Description

CONTRIBUTING.md says development should use Node.js ~20.19.0 because of an upstream development dependency issue.

However, the repository’s .nvmrc currently contains:

20

When running:

nvm install
nvm use

this may install/use a newer Node 20.x version, such as 20.20.x, which appears to be outside the ~20.19.0 range.

Expected behavior

The .nvmrc should match the development version requirement in CONTRIBUTING.md, for example:

20.19.0

or the documentation should clarify whether any Node 20.x version is acceptable for development.

Suggested fix

Either update .nvmrc to 20.19.0, or update CONTRIBUTING.md if 20.x is acceptable for development.
