# node
> Server-side JavaScript platform (Node.js).
> More information: <https://nodejs.org/docs/latest/api/cli.html#options>.
- Run a JavaScript file:
`node {{path/to/file}}`
- Start a REPL (interactive shell):
`node`
- Execute the specified file restarting the process when an imported file is changed (requires Node.js version 18.11+):
`node --watch {{path/to/file}}`
- Evaluate JavaScript code by passing it as an argument:
`node {{[-e|--eval]}} "{{code}}"`
- Evaluate and print the result, useful to print node's dependencies versions:
`node {{[-p|--print]}} "process.versions"`
- Activate inspector, pausing execution until a debugger is connected once source code is fully parsed:
`node --no-lazy --inspect-brk {{path/to/file}}`
