? Remix Fundamentals
Build Better websites with Remix
Remix enables you to build fantastic user experiences for the web and not be
ashamed of the code that got you there. Get a jumpstart on Remix with this
workshop.
Prerequisites
System Requirements
All of these must be available in your PATH. To verify things are set up
properly, you can run this:
git --version
node --version
npm --version
If you have trouble with any of these, learn more about the PATH environment
variable and how to fix it here for windows or
mac/linux.
Setup
Follow these steps to get this set up:
git clone https://github.com/kentcdodds/remix-fundamentals.git
cd remix-fundamentals
npm run setup
If you experience errors here, please open an issue with as many
details as you can offer.
Exercises
You’ll find all the exercises in the exercises directory. The finished version
of each exercise is in the final directory. Each directory is a completely
contained Remix app.
The purpose of the exercise is not for you to work through all the material.
It’s intended to get your brain thinking about the right questions to ask me as
I walk through the material.
Running each app
Each directory in the final and exercises directories is a Remix app. The
easiest way to run these without having to cd into each directory is to use
the dev.js script in the root of this repository:
# to run the first exercise app:
node dev exercise/01
# or to run the final version of the 2nd exercise
node dev final/02
Each will run on a unique port so you can run multiple apps at once.
