Ok, now. Today might be the day.
I’m seeing that "Ask AI" button in the Solana docs too👀
Docs with built-in AI help? Yes, please🙌

Docs like this be like:"Don’t read me, just talk to me"😂

Building in public in 2025 feels more like performing than creating.
This piece nailed the shift: from inspiring transparency to exhausting content treadmill.

This title is technically correct ✅
but totally misleading
“Solo-owned” makes you think it was just one guy,
but the article says the startup Base44 had 8 employees 👀.

Wake up, Remix! It's time to go wake up Remix! Here's what we're building and what it means for React Router.

Just read it, remix.run/blog/wake-up... and I think this new approach has potential. Especially the goal of having zero dependencies. Looking forward to seeing how Remix v3 will evolve.

🔥 #React / Next.js tip!
When should you use <Link> vs <a>?

🌀 Use <Link> for internal pages — it gives you faster, client-side navigation ⚡
🌍 Use <a> for external links, opening in a new tab, or downloading files 🗂️ 🔗

I just realized that Remix & React Router have been merged for months😳.
I feel so stupid right now🤦.
There’s even a notification on the Remix site 🪧, but I misunderstood it 😥.
I thought Remix just started using React Router v7.
I didn't realize they actually merged.
#indiehackers #buildinpublic

Using 👍npx create-remix@latest, you won't face any problem.
It installs version 18 of React and React-DOM.

The first one installs React 19 and React-DOM 19, which Remix is probably not yet compatible with.
You can fix it by installing React and React-DOM version 18.

Instead of this:
❌npm i @remix-run/node @remix-run/react @remix-run/serve isbot@4 react react-dom
Do this:
✅npm i @remix-run/node @remix-run/react @remix-run/serve isbot@4 react@18 react-dom@18
