What is Remix?
Remix is an open-source, MIT-licensed full-stack framework built around nested routing, server-side data loading, and form-based mutations, using standard Web APIs rather than framework-specific abstractions. Remix Software was acquired by Shopify in August 2022, and the original Remix team continues to maintain the framework under Shopify.

Key capabilities
- Nested routing: Routes and layouts composed with per-route data loading.
- Server-side data flow: Loaders and actions handle reads and writes on the server.
- Web standards: Built on Fetch, Request/Response and standard form semantics.
Server-rendered React applications with integrated routing and data handling are its core area.
Choose Remix when a team wants server-rendered React with nested routes, built-in data loading/mutation conventions, and a preference for Web standards over custom client-state abstractions.
Because Remix has evolved closely alongside React Router, confirm which version and migration path applies to a new project on the official docs before starting.
