The Big Picture - benhall/express-demo - Nodemon

Nodemon is a popular development tool for Node.js applications that automatically restarts the Node application when file changes are detected. It simplifies the development process by eliminating the need to manually restart the server every time a change is made. Nodemon can be installed using npm or git, and it can be used as a replacement wrapper for the node command. It supports various options, including the ability to monitor multiple directories, specify extension watch lists, and ignore certain files or directories. Nodemon is widely used in the Node.js community and is recommended for developers who want to streamline their development workflow.
