    Tanner Linsley joins React Universe On Air to unpack the evolution of the TanStack ecosystem—from React Table and React Query to TanStack Router and the newest addition to the family, TanStack Start ✨ What started as internal tooling for Nozzle became a suite of libraries that shaped how developers think about server state, routing, and full-stack React apps. In this episode, Tanner shares the technical decisions behind building framework-agnostic, headless tools—and explains why client-side architecture still matters in a server-first world. You'll also hear why TanStack Start isn't just another full-stack framework, how React Server Components could be treated like server state, and what's coming next for TanStack Router.

    Eighteen TV platforms, one codebase—what could possibly go wrong? Tune in to find out how to tackle the technical and UX challenges of building for Android TV, Apple TV, Fire TV, Tizen, and more—all with React Native! In the 49th episode of React Universe On Air, Łukasz Chludziński (https://x.com/lukasz_app) teams up with Michael Khirallah (https://x.com/mkralla11), Senior Director of Engineering at DIRECTV, and Chris Trag (https://x.com/chris_trag), Developer Evangelist at Amazon, to discuss why cross-platform development is not just a time-saver but also a way to deliver a consistent user experience. You know that at Callstack, we're all about performance—and with devices like Samsung's Tizen TVs released in 2017 (running Chromium 47!), performance is a serious concern. That's why we asked our guests to share real-world techniques for optimizing TV apps, from architectural choices to strategies that avoid unnecessary performance hits on newer devices. The complexity of TV app development doesn't stop at coding, though. Our host and guests know it all to well, so they couldn't help but discuss how they balance unit, integration, automation, and manual testing, leveraging tools like AWS Device Farm and custom-built frameworks to ensure stability across all supported platforms. What's in it for you? Tips on automating QA without compromising thoroughness and why manual testing remains crucial for end-user experience. Want to get started with React Native TV app development?
