Walkthrough

Rewrites and restructures the React overview documentation page: reorganizes sections, adds a dedicated “What is TanStack Start?” and “Core Dependencies,” refactors features into categorized bullets, updates limitations wording, condenses funding context, and adds a closing call-to-action banner. No code or API changes.

Poem

Little paws tap on parchment bright,
I nibbled bullets into tidy light.
Sections stacked, constraints made clear,
A carrot-CTA to bring you near.
From notes to stars, the page aligned—
Hop along; the docs refined! 🥕✨

Pre-merge checks and finishing touches

❌ Failed checks (1 inconclusive)

Check name	Status	Explanation	Resolution
Title Check	❓ Inconclusive	The pull request title “Update overview.md” is overly generic and refers only to the file name without describing the substantive updates made, such as restructuring sections, adding new headings, and improving readability. It does not clearly convey the main purpose or benefit of the changes to a reader scanning the history. A more descriptive title would improve clarity and context.	Consider revising the title to summarize the key improvements, for example “Polish TanStack Start overview with enhanced structure and readability” to clearly convey the scope and intent of the changes.

Tip

👮 Agentic pre-merge checks are now available in preview!

Pro plan users can now enable pre-merge checks in their settings to enforce checklists before merging PRs.

• Built-in checks – Quickly apply ready-made checks to enforce title conventions, require pull request descriptions that follow templates, validate linked issues for compliance, and more.
• Custom agentic checks – Define your own rules using CodeRabbit’s advanced agentic capabilities to enforce organization-specific policies and workflows. For example, you can instruct CodeRabbit’s agent to verify that API documentation is updated whenever API schema files are modified in a PR. Note: Upto 5 custom checks are currently allowed during the preview period. Pricing for this feature will be announced in a few weeks.

Please see the documentation for more information.

Example:

reviews:
  pre_merge_checks:
    custom_checks:
      - name: "Undocumented Breaking Changes"
        mode: "warning"
        instructions: |
          Pass/fail criteria: All breaking changes to public APIs, CLI flags, environment variables, configuration keys, database schemas, or HTTP/GraphQL endpoints must be documented in the "Breaking Change" section of the PR description and in CHANGELOG.md. Exclude purely internal or private changes (e.g., code not exported from package entry points or explicitly marked as internal).

22-55: Avoid repeating the feature list

We list the same capabilities twice—once here and again in the “With Start, you unlock…” section. Consolidating into the richer, second list keeps the page tighter and easier to scan.

86-86: Wire the CTA to the install guide

Let’s link “Head to the next page” to the installation doc (e.g. ./installation) so readers can jump straight into setup without hunting through the sidebar.

6-13: Love the clearer release-candidate callout

The structured note reads crisply and sets expectations right up front. Nicely done.
