Build Content Management System with React and Node: Beginning Project Setup
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.

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.
