When I used Homebrew to install Node on my laptop, it installed the Current version of Node (7.5.0 at the time I installed it). The LTS version is recommended for most users though, so I'd rather have that installed on my laptop. How can I install that version using Homebrew?

Treehouse Guest TeacherHello Javier,
To install a specific version of node, 6 for example, with homebrew you can do this
brew install node@6
I hope this helps.
