Normally you would use something like nodemon by installing it globally. I don’t know how you would do that on replit.

You could follow the advice here and see how that works for you.

I just tried: npm install -g nodemon
It returned a bunch of errors

Yeah, I assume that you can’t do global installs on repl. It’s kind of a “fake” environment, a sandbox. Global installs are what you would do on your system.

I have nodemon inside of my dev dependencies

"devDependencies": {
    "nodemon": "^2.0.12"
  }

It still returns “sh: nodemon: command not found”
I’ve looked around on the internet and found nothing that helps, I’ve also tried starting a new repl

Hello there,

I got it working, by installing the dependencies:

npm ci

You should be able to do this in either the console or the shell.

Hope this helps
