Vercel and Netlify both understand it. React Server Components are boring now, which is what you want in a six-week MVP. Metadata, sitemaps, and image optimization are already in the framework.
When we would pick Remix
A nested-routing UI that is mostly mutations, or a team that already lives in Remix. We will not pretend the quote is cheaper just because the logo changed.
Questions

Yes. The quote is still a written scope. The stack in the repo wins over our default.
