FAQPage Schema

How do I build type-safe APIs in a full-stack TypeScript application?▼

Build type-safe APIs by defining server-side routers and procedures and connecting them directly to your client, ensuring end-to-end type consistency without code generation or runtime overhead.

Can I integrate tRPC with React Query for data fetching and mutations?▼

Yes, tRPC integrates seamlessly with React Query, providing typed wrappers for queries and mutations that maintain full-stack type safety and automatic data synchronization across your application.

What is the best way to set up tRPC context and middleware for authentication and rate limiting?▼

Set up tRPC context and middleware to inject custom logic like authentication, logging, and rate limiting into your procedures, using dependencies like @upstash/ratelimit and @upstash/redis to manage request flows.

Does tRPC work with Next.js to handle API routes and client-side data fetching?▼

Yes, tRPC works with Next.js to handle API server-side setup and client-side integration, providing a robust type-safe API layer that connects your Next.js backend directly to your frontend.

How do I validate inputs and handle errors in tRPC procedures?▼

Validate inputs in tRPC procedures using Zod schemas to ensure runtime type safety, and handle errors by structuring your API handlers to catch and return typed error responses to the client.

Why should I use tRPC instead of generating API types for my full-stack TypeScript application?▼

Use tRPC to eliminate the need for code generation by directly sharing TypeScript types between your server and client, providing real-time type safety and eliminating runtime overhead during development.
