The Little Remix Site that Could

Thursday, May 11 at 2:25 PM

It started life as a create-react-app landing page in front of a vendor’s SaaS app that got an instant SEO upgrade with Remix v1.1.1’s server side rendering, and it’s never looked back. Need an unauthenticated version of “portal” content before the SaaS vendor supported it? Remix made that easy. Need to migrate content from a 25 year old on-premise vendor solution to a 10 year old on-premise vendor solution but want a modern user experience? We import the vendor’s design library into Remix and handoff the .NET app’s existing user sessions to Remix by POSTing JWTs. Remix is filling the gaps for Schoolcraft College and leveraging a hodgepodge of APIs and creaky old databases. Higher education development can be fun!
