## Intro

Mise ("meez") is a polyglot dev tool version manager with 26,300+ GitHub stars that replaces nvm, pyenv, rbenv, goenv, rustup, and dozens of other version managers with a single tool. Manage Node.js, Python, Ruby, Go, Rust, Java, and 100+ tools from one CLI. Mise also handles environment variables and task running — making it a complete development environment manager. For AI projects that need Python (ML), Node.js (frontend), and Go (backend) in the same repo, Mise ensures everyone on the team uses the exact same versions.

Works with: Node.js, Python, Ruby, Go, Rust, Java, .NET, PHP, Terraform, kubectl, and 100+ tools. Best for polyglot teams and AI projects that span multiple languages. Setup time: under 1 minute.
