tool/node/clean.sh doesn't seem to work

[Dewb]

the tool/node/clean.sh script doesn't work for me on linux desktop as it appears to be looking for a .nvmrc file that was never created by run.sh.

Is this custom build infrastructure still necessary in 2026? Now that package.json has gained the engines and engines.packageManager sections, there's a built-in mechanism to enforce matching versions, and it seems like relying on nvm in general has become much more socialized. I'm not as familiar with how the go ecosystem has changed over that span, however.

8 years is a long time for a web-based app like maiden not to have an overhaul given the rapid development of the frameworks involved. Thank you for chipping away at the audit process.

However, your question is outside my expertise!

This was added as part of my effort several months back to get what exists at least buildable on machines I currently had access to. I resorted to what is there after multiple attempts to plot a path to more modern tooling did not yield positive results. For juggling different versions of nodejs I use nvm so it appears as if there is a flow which I didn't fully vet on a clean machine.
