FusionAuth Remix demo
Remix is the new hotness in web development! It is an attempt to solve some of the performance issues of React by cleverly splitting up server-side code (called Loaders and Actions) from the functionality that absolutely must be shipped to the client, such as JavaScript and CSS for transitions. It also offers benefits in accessibility through a commitment to using web standards and progressive enhancement. Remix allows for almost all parts of the stack to be easily swapped out, e.g. you can choose from several different datastores that are pre-packaged with Remix for your convenience.
However, new users should be aware that the authentication functionality currently shipped with the basic Remix package does not conform to current best practices.

Why is there no authentication in OAuth?
OAuth, a standard for securely delegating authorization information, and OIDC, a profile written on top of it to securely transmit user profile data, both rely heavily on authentication of the user (also known as the ‘resource owner’) at the authorization server. The authorization server issues tokens only after the user has been authenticated to its satisfaction.
However, there is next to no guidance about how to actually authenticate the user. Should I use a username and password? A magic link? Delegate to a third party? Require a TOTP code?
This question came up in a discussion amongst the FusionAuth team and I thought it was worth digging into a bit more.
Why exactly is ‘authentication’ undefined in OAuth/OIDC?
