title: Nodemon and/or Hot Reloading with a Node-React Web App
body: <p>I'm still pretty new when it comes to configuring a web app with webpack to create an optimal dev experience. I've taken two different Node-React courses: one where we used nodemon for tracking changes and another where we implemented hot reloading.</p>
  <p>When it comes to these two dependencies, is it a one or the other? Should they be used together, or would it be sort of redundant?</p>
  <p>Also, if I'm using an express server with React on the client side, do I use react-hot-loader, webpack-hot-middleware, or both? I've become confused on which approach to take with hot reloading as it seems that are many ways to do it.</p>
  <p>Also, when I use nodemon as a wrapper (nodemon --exec babel-node server.js) my hot module reloading doesn't work, but I still find myself in want of a way to easily restart the server.</p>
  <p>Thank you.</p>
