You might know iron node:
https://github.com/s-a/iron-node

It's basically rawkit from the past and worked with node 4.
To achieve that at this time without node --inspect they wrote an entire electron app.

IronNode came up with a simple yet powerful feature to speed up the development workflow.
Unfortunately nif and rawkit haven't implemented it yet.

The feature allowed to press Ctrl+R or CMD+R to restart the node process you were debugging. (Similar to reloading the website).

So after modifying the app in your editor you could just reload and debug the new version of the code.

@jantimon I think this is similar to #36 in terms of allowing support for something like nodemon which would refresh/reload the debugging instance. There might need to be some work to make this work properly as the socket connection/debugger will have to be recreated/attached. I'll definitely look into this though.
