RunNodeWebpackPlugin

Webpack plugin that automatically starts and restarts a Node.js script after webpack compilation. Version 2.0.0 requires webpack ^5.0.0 and ships TypeScript types. Key differentiators: runs scripts only on actual bundle changes (not every recompilation), supports custom script selection, watch-mode control, and process argument configuration. More efficient than nodemon/pm2 for webpack dev workflows. Actively maintained on GitHub.
