+## Watching and Restarting
+
+**TypeScript Node** only compiles source code on the fly, watching files and code reloads are out of scope. If you want to restart the `ts-node` process on file changes, standard node.js tools exist already such as [nodemon](https://github.com/remy/nodemon), [onchange](https://github.com/Qard/onchange) and [node-dev](https://github.com/fgnass/node-dev). 
+
+There is also [`ts-node-dev`](https://github.com/whitecolor/ts-node-dev), a modified version of [`node-dev`](https://github.com/fgnass/node-dev) that uses `ts-node` for compilation and doesn't restart the process on every change.
