Remix with automatic importation. Have cleaner code.

If you are using Vite, the unimport plugin will help you keep your components cleaner.

First, install the package:

pnpm add unimport

Then, define these plugins and configurations in your vite.config.ts file:

import { defineConfig } from "vite";
import Unimport from 'unimport/unplugin'

export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [
        Unimport.vite({
            dts: true,
            dirs: [
                './app/components/*',
                '../../packages/ui/src/components/*'
            ],
            presets: [
                'react',
                {
                    from: '@remix-run/react',
                    imports: [
                        'useLoaderData', 'useActionData', 'useLocation', 'useNavigation',
                        'useNavigate', 'useParams', 'useAsyncError', 'useAsyncValue',
                        'useBeforeUnload', 'useBlocker', 'useFetcher', 'useFetchers',
                        'useFormAction', 'useHref', 'useMatches', 'useNavigationType',
                        'useOutlet', 'useOutletContext', 'unstable_usePrompt', 'useResolvedPath',
                        'useRevalidator', 'useRouteError', 'useRouteLoaderData', 'useSearchParams',
                        'useSubmit', 'unstable_useViewTransitionState', 'Link', 'Form', 'Await', 'Links',
                        'Outlet', 'NavLink', 'PrefetchPageLinks'
                    ],
                    priority: 10
                },
                {
                    from: '@remix-run/node',
                    imports: [
                        'json', 'redirect', 'defer', 'createCookie', 'isRouteErrorResponse', 'redirectDocument',
                        'createCookieSessionStorage', 'createMemorySessionStorage', 'createFileSessionStorage'
                    ]
                },
                {
                    from: '@remix-run/node',
                    type: true,
                    imports: [
                        'ActionFunctionArgs', 'LoaderFunctionArgs',
                        'MetaFunctionArgs', 'MetaFunction', 'ClientActionFunctionArgs',
                        'ClientLoaderFunctionArgs', 'HeadersFunction', 'LinksFunction',
                        'ShouldRevalidateFunction'
                    ]
                }
            ]   
        })
    ],
});

After installing the package and setting up the plugin, you can create components like the one below without using any imports.

Importing will be necessary only for independent cases.

export const meta: MetaFunction = () => {
  return [{ title: "Summary" }];
};

export const action = async ({ request }: ActionFunctionArgs) => {
    const formData = await request.clone().formData()
    return json({ success: true, message: formData.get("name")?.toString() })
}

export const loader = ({ request }: LoaderFunctionArgs) => {
    return json({ hello: 'world' })
}

export default function Page() {
    const loaderData = useLoaderData<typeof loader>()
    const actionData = useActionData<typeof action>()

  return (
    <main className="w-full min-h-screen flex items-center justify-center bg-zinc-100">
      <div className="sm:w-[500px] space-y-3">
                <Link to="testing">
                    <Headline name="Testing" />
                </Link>
                {JSON.stringify(loaderData)}

                <Card>
                    <CardHeader>
                        <CardTitle>Testing</CardTitle>
                        {actionData ? <p>{actionData.message}</p> : null}
                    </CardHeader>
                    <CardContent>
                        <Form method="post" className="space-y-2">
                            <Label htmlFor="name">Name</Label>
                            <Input name="name" id="name" type="text" />
                            <Button type="submit" variant="default">
                                Add
                            </Button>
                        </Form>
                    </CardContent>
                </Card>
            </div>
    </main>
  );
}
