Fantastic comprehensive guide on PM2! I've been using PM2 for years but learned some new tricks here, especially around the ecosystem file configurations. The monitoring and auto-restart features are absolute lifesavers for production deployments. One tip to add: PM2's built-in log rotation (--log-date-format) is incredibly useful for long-running applications.
