# React Query Pro

A practical guide to TanStack Query (React Query): treating **server state** as a cache with declarative fetching — queries, mutations, invalidation, optimistic updates, and pagination — instead of hand-rolled `useEffect` fetching.

## Overview

Server state (data from an API) is fundamentally different from client state (UI toggles): it's async, shared, potentially stale, and needs syncing. TanStack Query manages it as a **normalized cache keyed by query keys**, with background refetching, retries, and deduping built in. The payoff: delete most data-fetching `useEffect`s and get loading/error/retry/polling behavior for free.

## When to use

- Fetching REST/GraphQL data in React (queries).
- Mutations with cache invalidation or optimistic updates.
- Pagination, infinite scroll.
- Dependent/parallel queries, polling, prefetching.
