node-supervisor is a supervisor script for Node.js that runs your program and automatically restarts it when it crashes or when watched JavaScript files change. It provides hot-reload-ish development behavior without requiring a new module system or manual cleanup.
Use cases
- auto-restart node app on file change
- restart nodejs program when it crashes
- hot reload during node development
- watch js files and reload server
- keep node process running after crash
- supervise node scripts in development
When to choose
- you want a lightweight, simple file-watching restart tool for Node.js development
- you need automatic process restart on crash with minimal configuration
- you're working on older Node.js projects where supervisor is already the convention
When to avoid
- you need production-grade process management with clustering, log management, or remote monitoring (use PM2 instead)
- you want modern hot module replacement with full state preservation (use nodemon with ts-node/webpack HMR or vite)
- you need active maintenance and recent updates - the project hasn't released since 2019
