This is purely about NodeJS :).
Basically, both node
and nodemon
are the commands to run NodeJS applications. The main difference:
nodemon
will monitor the application source file for any change, and automatically restart NodeJS server when a change is detected so that your change to the app source can be reflected and you don’t have to restart NodeJS server manually.node
in contrast, doesn’t have such ability. Say if you update your app source, you have to stop NodeJS server and start it again to see the change effect.
