📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This PR removes nodemon configuration files and migrates the development runtime from nodemon to tsx's built-in file-watching capabilities. Development scripts now use tsx watch for local development and tsx watch --inspect-brk for Docker debugging, with nodemon removed as a development dependency.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
Nodemon Configuration Removal server/nodemon.debug.json, server/nodemon.json	Deleted nodemon debug and standard configuration files that previously managed TypeScript file watching and process restarting.
Development Scripts server/package.json	Updated dev script to use tsx src/server.ts for file watching; updated docker:dev script to use tsx watch --inspect-brk=0.0.0.0:9229 src/server.ts for debugging; removed nodemon from devDependencies.

Poem

🐰 Farewell, nodemon's watchful eye,

TSX takes the wheel on high,

Faster reloads, scripts so spry,

Dev mode leaps into the sky! ✨
