How to watch and reload ts-node when TypeScript files change

Question

I\'m trying to run a dev server with TypeScript and an Angular application without transpiling ts files every time. I found that I can do the running with ts-node

Answer 1

Another way could be to compile the code first in watch mode with tsc -w and then use nodemon over javascript. This method is similar in speed to ts-node-dev and has the advantage of being more production-like.

 "scripts": {
    "watch": "tsc -w",
    "dev": "nodemon dist/index.js"
  },
