electronmon VS Nodemon.io

Use electronmon to restart the Electron app when the main process code changes, and reload WebView for the renderer process.

electronmon: Like nodemon, but for the Electron process. Allows watching and reloading our Electron app.

Now everything is deployed to LocalStack which is great, however I’d rather not run a cdklocal command manually every time I’ve updated anything. To automate this deployment I use nodemon to watch for any changes in the stack and run the deploy command. To do that I use the following nodemon config file:

npm run dev (with nodemon installed) reloads on file changes.

We will need some help with the development process, that is why we will use nodemon. Nodemon is a utility tool that automatically monitors changes in your Node.js application's source code and restarts the server whenever it detects any modifications. This tool helps streamline the development process by eliminating the need to manually stop and restart the Node.js server every time you make changes to the code, making it easier to see the effects of your changes immediately. We will use "npm install --save-dev nodemon" to install nodemon to the development section of our project. Also, we need to add a new setting to the scripts part of the package.json file that will start nodemon.

I’m sure you’ve used different tools to watch your source files and restart the application when you change your code. We’ve done this in various ways, one of which is using nodemon, a utility that monitors changes in your source files and automatically restarts the server.

I installed Nodemon to help here. For those who don't know already, Nodemon is a tool that helps by restarting the Node application everytime a change has been made to the code. This proved to be quite helpful as the trial & error was about to begin.

Nodemon is a dependency that monitors your project files for changes and automatically restarts the server once there is a change to any file being watched by nodemon. Think of nodemon as node monitor ;). Note: You shouldn't use nodemon on a production server, except you're part of the developers that attempt fix bug in production, lol.
