To fix the ‘nodemon command is not recognized in terminal for node js server’ error, we can install nodemon locally or install it locally and add a script into package.json to run the local version.

To install it locally, we can run:

npm install -g nodemon

with NPM or:

yarn global add nodemon

with Yarn.

And to add a local version, we run:

npm install nodemon

with NPM or:

yarn add nodemon

with Yarn.

Then we add:

"serve": "nodemon server.js"

into the 'scripts' second of package.json .

And then we run:

npm run serve

With Yarn, adding to the 'scripts' section is optional, and we can just run:

yarn run nodemon server.js

If we did add the script to package.json , we run:

yarn run serve
