Which to choose?
Next.js for most SME web projects, especially those with AI features. Remix for teams prioritizing web standards and platform independence.
Our verdict
For SMEs, Next.js is the default choice: more resources, more developers who know it, more ready-made templates, and native integration with AI tools. Remix is an excellent but niche framework, preferred by teams that prioritize web standards and want to avoid Vercel lock-in. 90% of SMEs should choose Next.js.
