Getting Started with Swagger to TanStack: A Complete Guide

8 min read

In modern web development, maintaining type safety between your backend API and frontend code is crucial. Swagger to TanStack automates this process, generating fully-typed TypeScript hooks from your OpenAPI specification.

Why Use Swagger to TanStack?

Traditional API integration involves manually writing fetch calls, managing types, and keeping everything in sync with your backend. This approach is error-prone and time-consuming. Swagger to TanStack solves these problems by:

  • Generating type-safe hooks automatically from your OpenAPI spec
  • Keeping frontend code in sync with backend changes
  • Eliminating boilerplate code for API calls
  • Providing IntelliSense support for all API endpoints

Installation

First, install the CLI globally:

bash

Basic Usage

Generate your first API client with a single command:
