Blitz is very different. Next.js and Remix are comparable, but Blitz is a toolkit you can use with Next.js (and also Remix once we finish a bit more work). Blitz picks up where Next.js leaves off, providing libraries like a type safe RPC layer and auth and conventions like how to structure your files and how to implement multi-tenet apps.

The one thing that stands out to me as lacking in the Next+Blitz vs Remix comparison is form handling. It's a real pain in the butt if you want to use Next with progressively-enhanced forms - even with helpers like next-runtime you have to roll a lot of the basics like validation and type coercion from form submits yourself.

It feels like it stands out even more because of mutation handlers, which on the Remix side are generally set up as "just" form posts that update after a success.
