How I can Run Multiple Node js Files?

Question

I am new to node.js I have question about how to run mulitple files at once. let's say I have scripts_1.js and scripts_2.js How can I run the both at the same time. I know I can do this node scripts_1.js && scripts_2.js but the problem is that I need to wait for scripts_1 to finish so scripts_2.js can run.

I tried bash scripts start.sh

start node "scripts_1.js"
start node "scripts_2.js"

but I don't like it I need a better way. any one can help. Thanks in advance

What about node scripts_1.js && node scripts_2.js? That should wait for the first node execution to finish before the second. — Nick

Yes, but I don't want that I want the both to run at the same time — Brx

Oh, then just use one ampersand: node scripts_1.js & node scripts_2.js — Nick

is this work too with python, like python scripts_1.py & python scriopts_2.py ? — Brx

yeah, it's shell scripting so it doesn't matter what you're calling from shell — Nick

You can run multiple commands asynchronously by separating them with one ampersand in shell:

node scripts_1.js & node scripts_2.js
