Webpack --watch and launching nodemon?

Question

Thanks to an excellent answer by @McMath I now have webpack compiling both my client and my server. I\'m now on to trying to make webpack --watch be useful. Ideally

Answer 1

I like the simplicity of nodemon-webpack-plugin

webpack.config.js

const NodemonPlugin = require('nodemon-webpack-plugin')

module.exports = {
  plugins: [new NodemonPlugin()]
}

then just run webpack with the watch flag

webpack --watch

Answer 2

Assuming nodemon server.js touch the server.js file afterEmit:

// webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  // ...
  plugins: [
    // ...,

    //
