Status
(Alpha) Use to streamline your development but not recommended for production bundling use. Please help test and it can get there though.
Legend:
| Remix Template | Status | Install Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Remix App Server | โ | No changes required after install. Use the default remix-kit preview for the dev:server. |
| Express | โ | Rename the dev:node npm script to dev:server and delete the duplicate dev:server script. Add a require(BUILD_DIR); in the app.listen callback otherwise the first request will fail due to the dev client asynchronously initializing. |

This project was bootstrapped using code from Nuxt. Their MIT license can be found here and here. In addition it benefits greatly from a large number of libraries from the UnJS ecosystem. Vite and vite-node provide most of the core functionality and their usage is based on the approach pioneered by @pi0 and described in detail by @antfu at antfu.me.
