Nodemon is a utility that will monitor for any changes in your source and automatically restart your server. Perfect for development. Install it using npm. Just use nodemon instead of node to run your code, and now your process will automatically restart when your code changes.
Using nodemon you can speed up the development process and you can install as a dev dependency only with the following command and use it in the scripts section of package.json.
- npm install nodemon --save-dev
- "dev": "nodemon ./index.js localhost 3030"
- npm run dev
