Godot Version Manager - Manage all your Godot versions in one place ⚙️

Godot Version Manager

No more Searching for Godot. ^{(That was the name of the play, right?)}

What is this?

A result of my personal frustrations and overcomplicating a simple problem.

In all seriousness, this is a project that allows you to download different versions of Godot, and keep them all in one place. If you couldn't tell by the name, the project is inspired by Node Version Manager (NVM).

I made this because I'm messy and throw my downloaded files everywhere. I know, it's a me problem. But this tidies things up quite nicely!

What's supported?

Currently, GVM is made for Windows. And by that, I mean, it looks for Windows executables. You can still download builds for other platforms - as long as they're officially supported by Godot - but you can't launch them from the program... yet. It'll be a thing in the future, no worries!

You also can't download alphas, betas, and release candidates yet. Haven't gotten around to properly supporting subdirectories of the repository yet.
