Remix submit form onChange and get live update from useActionData()

I am trying to create a remix page where i want to get live preview when i change a Select tag. It is going through a Form since i want it to translate the data.

A solution to my problem could be to make preventDefault(first code example) to work or to find a way to make useActionData()(second code example) to work when using useFetcher

With this code, the preventDefault does not work. I need preventDefault to work so that the selector doesn't reset. I could make the action function also send the name so that the DefaultValue in select is imported from action function, but this is going to become a big form and i dont want to refresh the whole page.

export async function action({ request }: ActionArgs) {
    const form = new URLSearchParams(await request.text())
    const name = form.get('name');
    console.log('name', name);
    return json({ message: name ? `Hello ${name}!` : 'Select name' });
}

export default function Page() {
    const actionData = useActionData();
    console.log('actionData', actionData);

    return (
        <>
            <Form method="post">

                <h1>{actionData ? actionData.message : 'Select name.'}</h1>

                <select 
                    name="name" 
                    onChange={e => {
                        e.preventDefault();
                        e.target.form.submit();
                    }}
                >
                    <option value="name 1">Name 1</option>
                    <option value="name 2">Name 2</option>
                    <option value="name 3">Name 3</option>
                </select>

                <button type="submit" className="bg-blue-500 text-white font-bold py-2 px-4">
                    Submit
                </button>

                </Form>
        </>
    );
}

I have also tried following https://github.com/remix-run/remix/issues/1807 using useRef and useFetcher, but even tho the action function runs, it gives me undefined when logging actionData.

export async function action({ request }: ActionArgs) {
    const form = new URLSearchParams(await request.text())
    const name = form.get('name');
    console.log('name', name);
    return json({ message: name ? `Hello ${name}!` : 'Select name' });
}

export default function Page() {
    const actionData = useActionData();
    console.log('actionData', actionData); // Gives undefined

    const formRef = useRef<HTMLFormElement>(null);
    const fetcher = useFetcher();

    return (
        <>
            <fetcher.Form method="post" ref={formRef}>

                <h1>{actionData ? actionData.message : 'Select name.'}</h1>

                <select 
                    name="name" 
                    onChange={() => {
                        fetcher.submit(formRef.current);
                    }}
                >
                    <option value="name 1">Name 1</option>
                    <option value="name 2">Name 2</option>
                    <option value="name 3">Name 3</option>
                </select>

                <button type="submit" className="bg-blue-500 text-white font-bold py-2 px-4">
                    Submit
                </button>

            </fetcher.Form >
        </>
    );
}

I found a solution, it was to use fetcher.load, and then have it as a own loader file.

Main file test.tsx:

import { useFetcher } from '@remix-run/react';

export default function Page() {
    const fetcher = useFetcher();
	return (
		<>
			<div>
				<h1>{fetcher.data ? fetcher.data.message : 'Select name.'}</h1>

				<select
					name="name"
					onChange={e => {
						fetcher.load(`loader/?name=${e.target.value}`);
					}} 
				>
					<option value="name 1">Name 1</option>
					<option value="name 2">Name 2</option>
					<option value="name 3">Name 3</option>
				</select>

				<button type="submit" className="bg-blue-500 text-white font-bold py-2 px-4">
					Submit
				</button>
			</div>
		</>
	);
}

Loaderfile loader.ts:

import type { LoaderArgs } from '@remix-run/node';
import { json } from '@remix-run/node';

export async function loader({ request }: LoaderArgs) {
	const form = new URLSearchParams(await request.text());
	const name = form.get('name');
	return json({ message: name ? `Hello ${name}!` : 'Select name' });
}
