Remix is _just_ a really nice request handler. That means you can bring your own server (instead of getting locked into some specific implementation). There's a lot of benefit to the Remix team's "Use the platform" mantra. This means that you don't always have to go looking for "the Remix way to...." on Google. This was a major frustration with NextJS. "How do I run a function when the server boots up in NextJS?"
- dham 3y agoTo be fair, you can use a custom server with Next.js too.
- laurels-marts 3y agoAs someone who's evaluating both Remix and Next right now Remix makes it very clear and front-and-centre that you can (and perhaps should) bring your server. Next documentation barely mentions it, if you're lucky to find anything at all and in some parts they discourage it and push you to embrace the "serverless/edge" future.
