Opinionated Remix Starter Template

This is an opinionated remix starter template with the following opinions

• 💻 Express adapter
• 🎨 TailwindCSS
• 🧑‍💼 Node version manager - nvm
• 🦋 Prettier

To start a remix project with this template, run

npx create-remix@latest --template iamzee/remix-starter

Prerequisite

This project uses nvm as a node version manager. Before running any npm command, make sure you are in the correct node environment (specified in .nvmrc file)

To install the node with the version specified in .nvmrc, run:

nvm install

This will automatically detect the .nvmrc file and install the specified node version.

Now, to use that node version, run:

nvm use

You can verify the node version, by running:

node --version

Development

Start the Remix development asset server and the Express server by running:

npm run dev

This starts your app in development mode, which will purge the server require cache when Remix rebuilds assets so you don't need a process manager restarting the express server.

Deployment

First, build your app for production:

npm run build

Then run the app in production mode:

npm start

Now you'll need to pick a host to deploy it to.

DIY

If you're familiar with deploying express applications you should be right at home just make sure to deploy the output of remix build
