  1. If the network tab is a mess, the UX is probably a mess.

At Remix, we are absolutely obsessed with the user experience (UX). One major thing we keep a close eye on is the network tab in the browser. If the network tab is a mess, the UX is probably a mess: bouncing spinners, slow load times, etc. If the network tab is clean, your UX is likely snappy and responsive. How your app loads data affects the shape of your network tab.
