The project implements the publicly available parts of the Hacker News site API, with some remaining functionality implemented in-memory.

)Remix emphasises web primitives and fundamentals. So requests are made generally using Remix's <Link>
s and <Form>
s which add some extra functionality on top of the regular <a>
and <form>
tags.
Remix routes
folder correlates to route-matching UI views with layouts and endpoints for GET (loader) or all other HTTP verb methods (action). You can have endpoints with no UI and UI with no endpoints, or mixed.
Remix takes care of the build system (using ESBuild), which works incredibly quickly and is a pleasure to work with. Remix implements code-splitting, HTTP headers, asset bundling and various optimizations to make the site run fast in real-world scenarios.
Remix can run in a number of runtime environments so the architecture for your app could be widely different depending on your requirements. You could deploy it on an edge network (like Cloudflare Workers) or run it with NodeJS inside a cloud VM or VPS, for example.
