Remix v2 is filesystem-routed under app/routes/. The route URL
is derived from the filename via dot-flat naming and a handful
of special prefixes:
app/routes/_index.tsx → GET /
app/routes/about.tsx → GET /about
app/routes/users._index.tsx → GET /users
app/routes/users.$id.tsx → GET /users/{id}
app/routes/_auth.login.tsx → GET /login (_auth is a
pathless layout
— no URL effect)
app/routes/api.users.ts → exports drive verbs
app/routes/$.tsx → catch-all
Verb detection:
.tsx/.jsxfiles render a page — emit GET.- Files exporting
loaderadd GET (or keep it). - Files exporting
actionadd POST / PUT / PATCH / DELETE (Remix dispatches every non-GET toactionat runtime; we surface the full set so downstream tooling can fan out). - Resource-only
.ts/.jsfiles withoutloaderoractionare skipped — they're not handler routes.
Out of scope for this first cut:
- Per-handler request-helper scanning. Remix loaders / actions
receive
{ request, params, context }— accurate read tracking needs cross-call value flow. Path placeholders still surface via the optimizer. - Optional segments
($lang)(translated to a literallangtoday; Remix folds optionality into a wildcard match that's hard to represent without per-route alternatives). - The legacy v1 nested-folder convention — v2 flat is what
the toolchain has been on since Remix 1.15 / Remix 2.
(v2 folder routes —
routes/users.$id/route.tsx— are read.)
Constants
[...] is the only thing that nests in a Remix flat-route filename, and
a filename has no string literals, so quote handling is off — a route
named it's.tsx would otherwise open a quoted run and never split.
Empties are kept and parts are not stripped because normalize_segment
and the caller decide what an empty segment means; a filename cannot
contain leading or trailing whitespace worth trimming anyway.
A folder route's module: routes/users.$id/route.tsx (or index.tsx).
A Remix project is anchored by remix.config.* or a package.json
pulling in a Remix v2 package. Scoping to it keeps Remix off a sibling
React Router app's app/routes/, which uses the same file convention.
Not the bare @remix-run/ scope: React Router apps depend on
utilities published under it (@remix-run/node-fetch-server).
React Router v7's route config. Remix has none, so an app directory
holding one belongs to React Router even inside a Remix project root
(a monorepo whose root package.json hoists @remix-run/dev).
Class methods
Instance methods
Instance-side view of the same declaration. The per-file rescues live on
this base class, which has no way to name the analyzer that is running
inside them, so a skipped file could not be attributed to a tech.
Deriving it from analyzer_for keeps the name written exactly once.
