That’s one of the best designed sales pitches I’ve seen for a web framework, you could use this approach to sell any idea. Just scrolling list of small blocks of text with small/interactive screencasts/animations that communicate the idea via succinct bullet points. Much more fluid than the usual approach of paragraphs or breaking the page up into large blocks/sections. It’s closer to older HTML where you just have text and a scrollbar.

  Opinion only: I found their front page difficult to skim. It took me several scrolls-to-end-and-back to even realize they were trying to explain concepts on that page, not just showing screenshots. Normally I just page-down quickly to get to the features list or comparison table, but doing so here bypasses most of the explanatory animations. I kept wondering, "where's the section that tells you what this does and how it compares to other frameworks". Then I kept looking for a Features page on their top or bottom nav, but didn't find one. Maybe it's just years of bad habits trained by seeing too many bad marketing sites, where the typical signal to noise ratio is really bad. I guess even when I see a good sales pitch, I don't recognize it as such anymore and try to skip through it... sigh. Sorry, Remix.

    I viewed it on mobile which I found much nicer than desktop FWIW

I think Astro is more likely the successor to Next.js and probably not remix. I think Next will steal the best parts of Remix but Astro was built with simpler foundations and has integrations for deno with Netlify edge functions among others and unlike Remix is not tied to React but you can choose your framework.

  Remix is working on a Vue and Preact adapter, so won't be tied to React for long. I see the community is looking at a SolidJS adapter too. I'd say it'll be just fine

I didn't know Remix supported Deno, that's interesting
