Windows - broken setup/serve scripts

[Tyderion]

Some scripts from the package.json do not work correctly on windows machines.

for example, when I run npm run setup there is an error when executing knex:

C:\path\to\project\node_modules\.bin\knex:2
basedir=$(dirname "$(echo "$0" | sed -e 's,\\,/,g')")
          ^^^^^^^
SyntaxError: missing ) after argument list

npm ERR! Exit status 1

To fix this i had to directly use node_modules/knex/bin/cli.js instead of node_modules/.bin/knex.

After that, when I try to start the app by using npm run serve :

'.' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
npm ERR! code ELIFECYCLE
npm ERR! errno 1
npm ERR! express-typescript-boilerplate@2.0.0-beta.1 serve: `npm run banner serve && ./node_modules/.bin/nodemon --watch 'src/**/*.ts' --watch 'src/**/*.json' --watch '.env'`
npm ERR! Exit status 1

which is triggered by nodemon. To reproduce run ./node_modules/.bin/nodemon --watch 'src/**/*.ts' in the console. I have not found a way to fix this.

If i run ./node_modules/.bin/ts-node src/app.ts the app starts normally (with a different error which has nothing to do with windows).

Further, there is an apple-specific script in nodemon.json: "restart": "osascript -e 'display notification \"restarting server\" with title \"node.js application\"'"
