What problem does it solve?
Many developers need to rapidly scaffold and implement full-stack React applications that combine file-based routing, server functions, type-safe forms, and streaming AI chat without guessing framework conventions or integration patterns. This Skill consolidates TanStack Start project structure, server function patterns, form validation adapters, and AI streaming guidance into actionable instructions and examples. It reduces integration friction and prevents common mistakes when wiring middleware, validators, and AI adapters across client and server boundaries.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Provides clear guidance on TanStack Start project layout, file-based routes, and route loader conventions for predictable routing behavior.
- Shows how to create server functions with validators and middleware for authenticated, typed server APIs.
- Explains TanStack Form usage patterns, schema adapters (Zod, Valibot), validation events, nested fields, and server-side validation merging.
- Details TanStack AI setup for streaming chat, structured output schemas, isomorphic tools, and provider adapters (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Ollama).
- Useful for scaffolding new projects, converting form flows to type-safe patterns, and adding production-ready AI chat endpoints.
Quick Start
Create a new TanStack Start project, add a file route with a Zod-validated server function, connect a TanStack Form for type-safe input, and expose an AI chat endpoint using a TanStack AI provider adapter.
