Set up TanStack Query by installing the library and wrapping your application root with QueryClientProvider to enable data fetching, caching, and background updates. This configuration manages server state efficiently across your React components.

Yes, TanStack Query works with Next.js to manage server-side rendering and data hydration. It synchronizes server-fetched data on the client seamlessly, ensuring efficient state management during the hydration process.

Handle mutations and optimistic updates in React Query by applying instant UI feedback before the server responds. This approach updates the client state immediately, reverting automatically if the server mutation fails.

Implement infinite queries and pagination in React using TanStack Query's built-in infinite scrolling mechanisms. This fetches subsequent pages efficiently and manages cached data as users scroll downward.

Use TanStack Query instead of standard state management because it dedicates logic specifically to API integration and server state. It automatically handles caching, background updates, and data synchronization, reducing boilerplate.

TanStack Query requires no external dependencies beyond React itself for state management. You simply install the core library and configure the provider to start fetching and caching API data.
