Reviewer scorecard
“Perfect for prototyping. I described a dashboard and had a working app in 3 minutes. Not production-ready, but unbeatable for speed-to-demo.”
“Eliminates 90% of server state management boilerplate. Caching, refetching, and mutations just work.”
“Impressive demo, but the generated code is messy and you'll rewrite most of it. If you can't code, you can't fix what it breaks. Know what you're getting into.”
“Solved server state management so well that it changed how React apps are built. The devtools are excellent.”
“As a creator who needs quick landing pages and MVPs, this is a game-changer. I built a waitlist page with email capture in under 5 minutes.”
“TanStack Query's multi-framework support and the broader TanStack ecosystem are defining modern web data management.”
