# Remix

> Official documentation: https://remix.run/docs/en/main

## Overview

This skill provides comprehensive documentation for remix.

**Total references:** 1 files (~455 tokens)

## Reference Files

Load only the reference files relevant to the user's question:

- **[Remix Docs](references/general.md)** (~455 tokens)
  - Topics: How to Use These Docs

## Usage Guidelines

1. **Identify relevant sections** - Match the user's question to the appropriate reference file(s)
2. **Load minimally** - Only read files directly relevant to the question to conserve context
3. **Cite sources** - Reference specific sections when answering
4. **Combine knowledge** - For complex questions, you may need multiple reference files

### When to use each reference:

- **General**: General documentation, overview, and getting started

Overview

This skill packages concise, navigable documentation and guidance for Remix, the full-stack web framework for building performant web apps. It focuses on practical, example-driven explanations drawn from the official Remix docs to help you get started, structure apps, and adopt best practices quickly. The content is kept minimal and actionable for developers who want direct answers and clear next steps.

How this skill works

The skill inspects the main Remix documentation and extracts core concepts, getting-started steps, and common patterns. It maps questions to relevant doc sections (overview, routing, loaders/actions, data loading, forms, nested routes, deployment) and returns succinct guidance with pointers to the original docs. For complex topics it combines related sections to produce a coherent, stepwise answer.

When to use it

  • When you need a quick primer on Remix concepts and terminology.
  • When you want step-by-step guidance for setting up a Remix project.
  • When you need concise explanations of routing, loaders, actions, and data loading patterns.
  • When preparing to deploy a Remix app and choosing adapters or hosting patterns.
  • When troubleshooting common architecture or deployment questions about Remix.

Best practices

  • Use loaders for server-side data fetching and actions for form mutations to keep intent clear.
  • Favor nested routes and layout routes to compose UI and data boundaries cleanly.
  • Keep side effects and imperative logic on the server; client code should focus on UI and optimistic updates.
  • Adopt the official deployment adapters and follow their recommended environment configuration for best performance.
  • Read the official docs sections on forms and optimistic UI to prevent common UX pitfalls.

Example use cases

  • Create a new Remix app and choose a deployment target with guidance on adapters and environment setup.
  • Implement nested routes with shared layout and data loading boundaries for a dashboard app.
  • Design a form flow using actions and validation, with server-side processing and redirect-on-success.
  • Migrate a client-heavy app to Remix by moving data fetching into loaders and reducing client state.

FAQ

Is Remix suitable for data-heavy server-rendered apps?

Yes. Remix is designed for server-first data loading using loaders, enabling efficient server rendering and caching patterns for data-heavy apps.

Where should I put API-like logic in Remix?

Put API or mutation logic inside actions or dedicated server routes. Use loaders to fetch data for rendering and actions for processing form submissions or mutations.
