The TanStack Start + Clerk is currently overly complex:

  • There are multiple tables and functions with similar goals, each one adding additional complexity
  • There are some examples of SSR that fetches data from a non-Convex API, which makes it confusing
  • There are examples that use useQuery instead of useSuspenseQuery. In 99% of cases, useSuspenseQuery is what the user probably wants, since:
    • If developers want loading states that are closer to the components, they can use suspense boundaries
    • If developers want to avoid waterfalls, they can use useSuspenseQueries
