WordPress + WooCommerce + plugins = slow page loads
This is the most common reason teams migrate away from WooCommerce. Remix eliminates this issue entirely.
Requires WordPress hosting which adds complexity
With Remix, built on web standards — forms, headers, and http conventions.
Extension costs add up quickly for needed features
Modern architectures like Remix are designed to avoid this from the ground up.
Security depends on keeping WP + all plugins updated
After migrating, you'll no longer need to worry about this — Remix takes a fundamentally different approach.
Full-stack React framework built on web standards. Built with JavaScript/TypeScript (React), it's full-stack web applications that benefit from web-standard patterns.
Built on web standards — forms, headers, and HTTP conventions

Excellent error handling with error boundaries at every route

Remix is open-source and free to use. You own your code and data with no vendor lock-in. Deploy to any host that supports JavaScript/TypeScript, or use managed platforms like Vercel and Netlify for zero-config deployments.

Migrating from WooCommerce to Remix makes the most sense if you're experiencing wordpress + woocommerce + plugins = slow page loads or outgrowing WooCommerce's architecture. Remix is best for full-stack web applications that benefit from web-standard patterns.
You should migrate if: your WooCommerce site is slow, your hosting costs are climbing, your store needs a custom frontend, or you want to adopt a modern JAMstack architecture.
You might want to stay if: your WooCommerce site benefits from inherits wordpress's massive ecosystem of themes and plugins and you don't have JavaScript/TypeScript developers on your team.
The migration itself is straightforward with LeaveWP — enter your WooCommerce URL, select Remix, and download your content. The more important question is whether Remix's architecture fits your team's skills and your project's long-term needs.
