Router5 is a framework- and view-library-agnostic JavaScript router that processes routing instructions and emits state updates, working both client-side and server-side. It is modular and extensible via plugins, with integrations for React, Redux, and observable libraries.

Use cases

• route a single-page application without coupling to a view framework
• use the same router on client and server for universal/isomorphic apps
• integrate routing state with Redux or RxJS observables
• control navigation transitions and prevent navigation with middleware
• build a React app with hooks-based routing via react-router5

When to choose

• you want a view-agnostic router with clear separation of routing state from UI
• you need universal (client and server) routing
• you want fine-grained control over transitions, middleware, and plugins
• you use React, Redux, or observables and want first-class integration

When to avoid

• you want a batteries-included router tightly integrated with a mainstream framework like React Router or Vue Router
• you need a router with active ongoing development and frequent releases
• you prefer file-based or convention-over-configuration routing
