How to publish a Remix app to the edge with GitLab and Cloudflare
Blog post from GitLab
Remix has emerged as a pivotal framework in the frontend development landscape, allowing developers to write backend code within frontend applications, which facilitates scalability without necessitating a complete rewrite of application logic. This capability is particularly advantageous when deploying applications to the edge, where small instances run on servers close to users, minimizing network latency. Cloudflare Workers is highlighted as a popular service for deploying Remix apps due to its global edge network and straightforward deployment process using GitLab CI/CD. The deployment process involves creating a Remix app, setting up a GitLab project, configuring Cloudflare with an API token, and establishing a GitLab pipeline for continuous deployment. Additionally, deploying Remix apps with a custom domain via Cloudflare involves setting up DNS and routing configurations to direct traffic to the deployed Worker, ensuring seamless access to the application.
