+# How to run multiple scripts simultaneously
+
+Use a regex with `pnpm run` to run multiple scripts simultaneously. Ditch `npm-run-all` or `concurrently`.
+
+```javascript
+{
+    "dev": "pnpm run \"/dev:/\"",
+    "dev:tsc": "tsc --watch --preserveWatchOutput",
+    "dev:node": "node --watch dist/index.js",
+    "dev:esbuild": "pnpm run build --watch"
+}
+```
+
+`--preserveWatchOutput` prevents the console from being cleared by `tsc --watch` when you're running multiple scripts simultaneously.
