remy/nodemon
Nodemon is a utility that monitors for any changes in source and restarts your application. It provides a command-line interface and a programmatic API to manage file watching, process execution, and event handling. The system supports configuration via JSON or plain-text files, handles environment variables, and manages child process lifecycles.

How it got here
2010–2013 · Modularization and test coverage
This period focused on restructuring the codebase into a modular, testable architecture by separating concerns into distinct modules for CLI, configuration, and monitoring. Comprehensive test suites were added to verify the new components, while legacy formats and utilities were refactored to improve maintainability and reliability.

About this page
- The description of this project is derived from its own commit history, not from its README.
- The score is its highest published measurement, taken on 2 August 2026 at a pinned commit. It is not a live figure and does not change until the project is measured again.
- Measured at commit bdd32b6046 — the exact code this score is about.
- Scored under rubric rubric-2026.08.18. Score the same commit under that rubric and you get the same number.
