Cut our ownership providers from 245 → 3 using @tanstack.com Router's staticData API 🧹

Route-level ownership that TypeScript enforces at compile time. Shared layouts just work. Your IDE tells you when you forgot to assign a team.

Type-first routing is a game changer 🌅

Wrote up how to integrate TanStack Router with Datadog RUM after reverse-engineering their codebase

tldr: subscribe to onResolved, track views manually, get proper route grouping

No wrappers needed, just a clean subscription pattern : beaussan.io/blog/datadog...

After a couple of months, I'm happy to share that @payfiteng.bsky.social main app is now running on @tanstack.com router (250+ routes)!🎉

This allowed us to have a snappier app, typesafe routing and found a couple of bugs thanks to better types!

I am planning an article about the approach 🔜

Path matching in a router? How hard can it be 🤷‍♂️.

Hard to do correctly. Very hard to do fast on top of that. This is a great blog post about the recent core refactoring done in @tanstack.com router 🔥

🤔 What if there were a conference without talks? Just hanging out with OSS maintainers & builders, seeing what they’re working on, and learning cool stuff by actually talking to people.

🤯 What if hallway track turned into the whole event!

💡 @tannerlinsley.com is exploring it. Interested? ⬇️

There is some opportunities that feels unreal. This is one of them! I've joined the TanStack Router team to keep pushing the boundaries of typescript and routing!

Huge thanks to @manuelschiller.bsky.social and @tannerlinsley.com for their trust ❤️

I am looking for a full-time job.

Being independent in open source for 3.5+ years has been wonderful. I've gotten done most of the high-level goals I wanted to, and miss having people & structure around me.

If you know of a role for a staff-level TypeScript+web developer, let me know! 🙂

I'm really struggling with @pnpm.io , especially around libs that are duplicated since peer are resolved to different version, and singleton instance (like vitest snapshots) breaks... 😢

Is there a secret or override all the things ?

Like every couple of weeks, I try @rolldown.rs @vite.dev on PayFit's frontend codebase, but this time, it's all green 🎉

And the stats are pretty impressive, from 2m builds down to 8s ! All of that, with nearly no config change (just a polyfill plugin). Maybe it's time to run it in prod 🎉

I've loved the digital edition, but I always like a physical editions of the books I've enjoyed a lot!

If you have to deal with legacy codebase, this book is full of actionable and useful tips!

Thanks a lot @nicoespeon.com for writing this!

Isaac is an awesome person, very knowledgeable and now, on the market! If you run large monorepos, or codebases in general, I'm sure he will be able to help you out!
I'm offering free 30 minute @nx.dev configuration assessments! DM me with details about your repo and I'll send you a scheduling link.

Last week, I was laid off by Nx, so I get to do what I enjoy doing for now. I'll keep going until I don't want to any more.

📚 Finally found the time to write about what I think the best parts about @tanstack.com Router are. Yes, type-safety (duh), but there is so much more to talk about. Honestly, coupled with React Query, this is the most productive stack I’ve ever worked with 🚀
