[nodemon] app crashed - waiting for file changes before starting...

What happen's nodemon looking for transpiled ts files in dist. But they won't exist on clean clone, nor will be updated while coding (dist/ updated on build only)

Solution

nodemon should be based on TS files for development purpose, so add ts-node, and watch those.
