Running JBrowse 'forever' automatically... #3145

Dear all, Hope you're well! A stupid question perhaps, but I'd like to run my genome browser online 'forever' meaning that the server can continue running without me having to re-execute the 'npx serve . ' command.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated! |

Best regards,
