## What it is
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
