"As an application grows in size and complexity, the tendency for API sprawl - the need to create numerous endpoints to meet the needs of different clients or components - also increases. This can impede the developer experience, as developers must navigate extensive documentation to find the right API. It can also lead to complex lifecycle management, where teams may struggle to track which APIs require updates or deprecation."
"In the latest update to TanStack DB (v0.5), TanStack introduced a feature designed to address this problem: Query-Driven Sync. This feature shifts how developers approach data fetching, caching, and updates. Instead of writing custom backend endpoints or GraphQL resolvers for every data view, Query-Driven Sync turns your component's query into the API call. You define the query directly inside your client components, and TanStack DB automatically transforms it into a precise network request."
Query-Driven Sync converts component-defined queries into precise network requests, eliminating the need for bespoke backend endpoints or GraphQL resolvers for each data view. Developers declare the data they need inside client components, and TanStack DB handles fetching, caching, and updates declaratively. The approach reduces API sprawl and simplifies lifecycle management by centralizing query definitions and minimizing distinct endpoints. Automatic transformation of queries into network calls improves predictability and developer experience. The mechanism integrates with TanStack DB's existing caching and update logic to maintain consistency across the application. Prior familiarity with TanStack DB core concepts is recommended for effective use.
