nodemon - enables automatic reload of your server after code change docs
-
Devlog Week 3: 4 - 10 December 2023
Then, install nodemon (in the VSCode terminal also), which, to my understanding, automatically refreshes the server you'll be sending requests to, whenever you make a change. Using plain node.js, you'd have to manually stop and restart the server after every change.

Say Goodbye to Docker Volumes 👋
That's already pretty good, but as you already know it's a PITA to work with this during development. You will have to rebuild your Docker images whenever you change your code, even though your apps will probably support hot-reloading out of the box (or with something like Nodemon if not).

Set up Hot Reload for Typescript ESM projects
Are you moving your projects to use ES Modules but you are facing some unexpected issues? You are not alone in this fight. In this tutorial, you will learn how to set up nodemon along with ts-node.

Best ways to fix Nodemon error- nodemon.ps1 cannot be loaded because running scripts is disabled on this system.
Welcome to my blog, where we dive into the intriguing world of Node.js development and tackle one of the common stumbling blocks many developers encounter: the "Nodemon Error - nodemon.ps1 cannot be loaded because running scripts is disabled on this system." If you've ever come across this error while working with Nodemon, fear not! In this article, we will explore the causes behind this issue, understand why scripts are disabled on certain systems and most importantly, provide you with practical solutions to overcome this obstacle and keep your development workflow seamless. So, let's embark on this troubleshooting journey together and empower ourselves to conquer the Nodemon Error!

The best testing setup for frontends, with Playwright and NextJS
For this, we'll use chokidar - more specifically the chokidar-cli package. chokidar is probably the most useful file watching library for the nodejs ecosystem and it will serve us well.

Why Does 'Is-Number' Package Have 59M Weekly Downloads?
tailwindcss -> chokidar -> braces -> fill-range -> to-regex-range -> is-number
is-number was first published 9 years ago, when these kind of micro-packages were in vogue. braces was added as a dependency to chokidar over 6 years ago [1]. And if it ain't broke, don't fix it. I don't think the average JS dev today is going out and pulling in these deps.

How nodemon works?
The watching magic is really in the https://www.npmjs.com/package/chokidar library

Dart 3.1 and a retrospective on functional style programming in Dart
> It’s typical to listen to this stream of events and use chained if-else statements to determine an action based on the type of the events that occur.
You'd think something like directory watching would have a clear set of events that would make nice objects with consistent meanings, but in my experience file watching gets crazy complicated, and can have all sorts of edge cases.
Just take a looked here for all the various edge cases that crop up: https://github.com/paulmillr/chokidar/issues
Then you have linux, windows, macos, and maybe you want to abstract over some underlying implementation like chokidar vs fb/watchman vs webpack/watchpack. Every new OS release could also cause things to change.
So usually its going to be a bunch of if-else statements hacked together to get around edge cases, and have to be revisited later on.
Any attempt to abstract this into objects, just obfuscates things. And OO forces you to name things, when in fact they might be un-nameable. `FileSystemModifyEventExceptWhenXAndYAndSometimesZ`.
The behavior might rely on a series of events together, so the object hierarchy must be re-worked.
OO has this rosy idea that we just have to come up with the perfect hierarchy, but things change in unexpected ways, and everything must have a descriptive noun.

Is there anyway to auto reload the browser page when using express?
Next, you can use a library like chokidar to listen for changes in your source directory. Create a ws server, and whenever a file changes, send a message.

How does nodemon works under the hood?
As another has mentioned, nodemon uses chokidar under the hood for the actual file watching part.

Turbowatch – Extremely fast alternative to Nodemon
At the end of the day, ironically, Nodemon does not even implement file watching functionality. It is a thin wrapper around chokidar (see source code), and the way it is being used is neither efficient (CPU and your battery usage) or performant. So it is not a false argument, just perhaps not the most appealing.
