Remix Starter for Express

Welcome to Remix!

This is a starter repo for using Remix with Express.

Development

After cloning the repo, rename .npmrc.example to .npmrc and insert the license key you get from logging in to your dashboard at remix.run.

Note: if this is a public repo, you'll probably want to move the line with your key into ~/.npmrc to keep it private.

Then, install all dependencies using npm:

$ npm install

Your @remix-run/* dependencies will come from the Remix package registry.

Once everything is installed, start the app in development mode with the following command:

$ npm run dev

This will run a few processes concurrently that will dynamically rebuild as your source files change. To see your changes, refresh the browser.

Note: Hot module reloading is coming soon, which will allow you to see your changes without refreshing.

Production

To run the app in production mode, you'll need to build it first.

$ npm run build
$ npm start

This will start a single HTTP server process that will serve the app from the files generated in the build step.

Documentation

Detailed documentation for Remix is available at remix.run.

Project Structure

All application source code is found in the app directory. This includes your application entry points for both server rendering (see app/entry.server.tsx) and the browser (see app/entry.client.tsx), as well as your root component and routes (see app/root.tsx and app/routes).

Everything in the public directory is served by express.static.

Don't want TypeScript?

The no-typescript branch is a version of this same starter template that uses plain JavaScript instead of TypeScript for all code in app.
