The issue might not be related to nodemon directly but posting to find a solution for launching in vscode. If it is completely not relevant please close the issue. Thanks.

You should probably use type = node-terminal. I'm using nodemon using package.json script and it works great for me. I'm guessing that using nodemon should also work in this case

{
            "command": "yarn start:dev",
            "name": "Debug Server",
            "request": "launch",
            "type": "node-terminal"
}
