With rapid development and newer versions coming in, having an appium version manager can be handy specially when you want to try out new tasty appium features:

Here is a handy tool I wrote: https://www.npmjs.org/package/appium-version-manager (not sure if something similar exist already).

$ npm install -g appium-version-manager
$ avm -h

  Usage: avm [options] [COMMAND] [args]

  Commands:

    avm                            Output versions installed
    avm latest                     Install or activate the latest appium release
    avm <version>                  Install appium <version>
    avm use <version> [args ...]   Execute appium <version> with [args ...]
    avm bin <version>              Output bin path for <version>
    avm rm <version ...>           Remove the given version(s)
    avm prev                       Revert to the previously activated version
    avm --latest                   Output the latest appium version available
    avm ls                         Output the versions of appium available

  Options:

    -V, --version   Output current version of n
    -h, --help      Display help information

  Aliases:

    which   bin
    as      use
    list    ls
    -       rm
