A minimal starter template for 🏝️ TanStack Start. → Preview here

pnpm create mugnavo

• React 19 + React Compiler
• TanStack Start + Router + Query
• Tailwind CSS + shadcn/ui + Base UI (base-maia) + Remix Icon
• Vite 8 (beta) + Nitro v3 (nightly)
• Drizzle ORM + PostgreSQL
• Better Auth
• Oxlint + Oxfmt

1. Use this template or create a project using our CLI:

   pnpm create mugnavo

2. Create a .env file based on .env.example.

3. Push the schema to your database with drizzle-kit:

   pnpm db push

   https://orm.drizzle.team/docs/migrations

4. Run the development server:

   pnpm dev

   The development server should now be running at http://localhost:3000.

The vite config is currently configured to use Nitro v3 to deploy on Netlify, but supports many other deployment presets like Vercel and Node.

While Nitro provides a great multi-provider default, the official @netlify/vite-plugin-tanstack-start is also available for Netlify deployments.

Refer to the TanStack Start hosting docs for deploying to other platforms.

• Router/Start issues - TanStack Start is in RC.
