SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill helps developers define and manage routing in TanStack Router without heavy reliance on file-based routing, enabling precise code-based route trees, nested layouts, dynamic segments, and non-nested routes.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Define routes via createRoute and a root route to build a clear, testable route tree.
  • Support nested layouts, dynamic route segments, pathless layouts (using id), and non-nested routes for flexible navigation structures.
  • Use cases include structuring complex apps, debugging routing flows, and migrating from file-based to code-based routing in React apps.

Quick Start

  • Define a root route with createRootRoute, then create child routes using createRoute and assemble them with addChildren.
  • Build a sample route tree (e.g., posts with index and dynamic post routes, plus a pathless layout) and mount it in your React app.
  • Run and verify that navigation matches the intended URL structure and renders the correct components.

FAQPage Schema
How do I define a code-based route tree in TanStack Router?

Define a root route with createRootRoute, create child routes using createRoute, and assemble them into a navigable route tree using addChildren in your React application.

Can I use nested layouts and dynamic segments with code-based routing in TanStack Router?

Yes, code-based routing supports nested layouts, dynamic route segments, pathless layouts using id, and non-nested routes for flexible navigation structures in React apps.

What is the best way to migrate from file-based to code-based routing in TanStack Router?

Migrate by defining routes directly via createRoute and a root route, replacing file system conventions with a clear, testable code-based route tree assembled using addChildren.

When do I need a pathless layout in TanStack Router?

You need a pathless layout when using the id property to group routes under a shared layout component without adding a URL segment to the navigation structure.

How do I assemble child routes into a navigable route tree in React?

Assemble child routes into a navigable route tree by using the addChildren method on the parent route, ensuring the structure matches your intended URL hierarchy.
