That's... not quite right.

[EDIT] I typed "Router" when I meant "Query".

TanStack Query is the relatively newer name for React Query -- one of the most popular JS libraries of all time.

TanStack Start is a recent metaframework (and the one w/ the brightest future, IMO), but Tanner and team have profoundly significant bona fides. IOW, the dev team is far from being the "new kids on the block".

Do you have a source for TanStack Router being a newer name for React Router? Doesn't seem like it when looking at the sites for both projects.

Are you thinking of the whole Remix/ReactRouter thing?

    Thank you, but no. I typed "Router" when I meant "Query". TanStack Query is the newer name for the library FKA react-query.

    TanStack Router is an alternative to React Router.

    TanStack Start is an alternative to Remix/react-router-7's framework mode.

    The naming history and evolution of react-router and its relationship to Remix is a bit convoluted, but an unrelated tangent to the point I was making.
