Congrats on the launch ?makers. If your website down? The "mixtape personalization tokens" link doesn't seem to work, no pricing info, etc. I like the ultra-basic approach of simple find/replace, focusing on simple use-cases.

Thanks so much, @sam_smith16! I love what you're doing @ DemoTime, too. Good call on the site: fixed 😅

@joshua_perk1 Thanks! Can confirm the fixed page is better. Love the simplicity of your design. The more complex tools serve a niche, but there's a valid need for a lighter-touch option. I'll follow your project. The landing page is SO charming/simple that I found myself wanting to learn more. Maybe a simple Medium blog post or something? Just so that people who are at the "oh this looks cool" but not "I need this today" can become more familiar. You present the demo video well. Good luck with the launch.

@sam_smith16 I'm glad the landing page made sense! I wasn't sure if I was going "too meta" with the demo actually updating the page itself! Yes, I love this! I was eager to put this out into the world and see the response but I absolutely must add some more content and examples. Started here but need to record some videos 😅: https://tryremix.io/help You also nailed my hopes: this technology isn't wildly innovative — in fact, there's a lot in this space already. But I'm truly hoping to lower the barrier to entry with a simpler, more affordable approach that anyone can try. Thank you for your support!

I'm glad you liked it @brooke_malone! Really enjoying some of the minimalistic, clean UIs lately so it was fun to build 🤓

I enjoy building products that hit close to home and this is something I and my amazing team of Solutions Consultants (who spend a majority of our time demoing software to prospects) have been dying for — the ability to easily mock-up any scenario in our app to match the story we're telling our customers. Remix is not the first solution to tackle this problem. There are many fantastic platforms out there that "snapshot" the HTML, CSS, and JS of your app but they become cumbersome and stale. Instead, Remix interacts with the DOM and network requests of your real, live app — for a more authentic and easy-to-manage solution. While there are a few platforms out there that have also taken this approach, they're backed by venture making them expensive and unable to be trialed. I want this technology to be accessible to all which is why I've exposed the ability to intercept network requests and offer free consulting via email for anyone struggling to do so. Thank you for checking out the project and I welcome all feedback!
