Previously we need to restart the node server when any changes are made in any of the file to see that change in the app
As a solution to this <code>nodemon</code> was introduced: So that nodemon will automatically restart the server when we make changes in any of the files
<h2 id="heading-new-era-new-solution">New Era, New Solution</h2>
With the release of node version <code>v19.0.0</code>, Now we don't need any external package like <code>nodemon</code> to restart the server. The solution is built-in into node
<blockquote>
NOTE: This new feature is only available for node version 18.11 and up
</blockquote>
So now instead of running:
<pre><code class="lang-bash">nodemon &lt;filename&gt;.js
</code></pre>
We can use the watch flag for node:
<pre><code class="lang-bash">node --watch &lt;filename&gt;.js
</code></pre>
