# Watch The Difference
|
||||
|
||||
The `watch` command is a simple way to repeatedly run a particular command.
|
||||
I'll sometimes use it to monitor the response from some endpoint. `watch`
|
||||
can make monitoring responses even easier when the `-d` flag is employed.
|
||||
This flag instructs `watch` to highlight the parts of the output that are
|
||||
*different* from the previous run of the command.
|
||||
|
||||
So if I run
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ watch -d curl -LIs localhost:3000
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
I can easily see if the http status of the request changes.
