Reliable Query Prefetching with TanStack Router

This article is part of a series on TanStack Router and Query. It discusses the recommended pattern of fetching data in route loaders to trigger requests early, while treating loaders as event handlers. The main challenge is the 'Great Divergence'—duplicating fetch logic between components and loaders, which can lead to sync issues as apps grow. The author shares practical tips for maintaining consistency, such as using getRouteApi and being mindful of component composition. Aimed at developers using TanStack Router, it provides insights into avoiding fetch waterfalls and improving UX.
