Reviewer scorecard
“Issue-to-PR workflow is the right abstraction. The planning step prevents the 'just generate code' antipattern.”
“Eliminates 90% of server state management boilerplate. Caching, refetching, and mutations just work.”
“Still limited in what it can handle. Works for straightforward issues but struggles with anything architecturally complex.”
“Solved server state management so well that it changed how React apps are built. The devtools are excellent.”
“This is where all development is heading — describe what you want, AI plans and implements. GitHub has distribution advantage.”
“TanStack Query's multi-framework support and the broader TanStack ecosystem are defining modern web data management.”
