Route manifest (or named route functions)

[frontsideair]

Full stack React frameworks such as Blitz.js and RedwoodJS share a Link component that is aware of the routes that your app has. This way, creating links is safer and you can use intellisense instead of randomly typing strings.

Blitz.js calls this route manifest and in RedwoodJS it's named route functions.

Implementation-wise, Blitz.js generates the manifest using CLI commands, and I assume RedwoosJS does something similar. Since Remix gives so much safety, adding this would be in line with the project's vision and provide a much better developer experience.

Just found out about routes-gen, which solves my issue but would love to see it integrated into Remix.

Thanks for sharing routes-gen. 💙 Would love to see it integrated in Remix, too.
