Episode notes
TanStack Start Adds RSC With Safer Defaults
- TanStack Start will support React Server Components before 1.0 and offer both low-level and composite slot-based APIs.
- Jack Harrington highlights this as feature-parity with Next.js while avoiding recent RSC security CVEs.
Try TanStack Start Early And Use Adapters
- Try TanStack Start once it releases this week and test its API before 1.0 stabilizes.
- Use the Cloudflare or Netlify adapters or Nitro for broader deployment flexibility.
Prepare For Yarn's Rust Rewrite
- Expect Yarn to be rewritten in Rust over the next six to eight months and plan migrations accordingly.
- For now, continue using your current package manager (npm, pnpm, Bun) until Yarn 6 stabilizes.
