React Router is a multi-strategy routing library for React that can be used as a minimal declarative router or as a full React framework with SSR, data loaders, and type-safe route modules. It is one of the most widely adopted packages in the React ecosystem, maintained under open governance by Shopify.

Use cases

• add client-side routing to a React SPA
• build a React app with server-side rendering
• handle nested routes and URL parameters in React
• migrate a React app to file-based routing with type-safe route modules
• add data loaders and actions to React routes
• pre-render React pages statically
• upgrade an existing React Router app to the latest version

When to choose

• you are building a React app that needs URL routing
• you want framework features like SSR, code-splitting, and data loading in React
• you need a battle-tested, hugely popular routing solution with long-term support
• you want incremental adoption from a simple router to a full framework

When to avoid

• you are not using React (consider framework-native routers instead)
• you need routing for a non-web environment like React Native (use React Navigation)
• you want a zero-dependency minimal setup and don't need routing features beyond basic navigation
