+description: Enable the React Compiler in a Rango app the @vitejs/plugin-rsc way — a separate @rolldown/plugin-babel running reactCompilerPreset(), ordered after react() and before the plugin that supplies @vitejs/plugin-rsc. Use when a consumer wants to turn React Compiler on, hits the dead plugin-react v6 `react({ babel })` path, or is unsure why server components aren't being compiled.
+argument-hint:
+---
+
+# React Compiler
+
+React Compiler is **opt-in** in Rango. The plugin pipeline is fully compatible —
+you just add one more plugin. The catch on a current Rango stack (Vite 8 +
+`@vitejs/plugin-react` v6) is that **v6 dropped its internal Babel for oxc**, so
+the way the React docs and most blog posts show it — `react({ babel: { plugins:
+[...] } })` — silently does nothing. The compiler has to be its own top-level
+plugin.
+
+## The shape (read first)
+
+- The compiler is a **Babel** plugin, run via
+  [`@rolldown/plugin-babel`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@rolldown/plugin-babel)
+  with `reactCompilerPreset()` from `@vitejs/plugin-react`.
+- **Ordering is load-bearing:** put `babel(...)` **after `react()`** and
+  **before the plugin that supplies `@vitejs/plugin-rsc`**. In a default Rango
+  app that plugin is `rango()` itself; in a Cloudflare app it is
+  `@cloudflare/vite-plugin`.
+- **It is client-only.** `reactCompilerPreset()` gates itself to the client
+  environment. Server/RSC components are not compiled, and that is the upstream
+  example's behavior — not a Rango limitation. See
+  [What gets compiled](#what-gets-compiled-client-only).
+- **Rango's build-time prerender is unaffected.** You do not need to do anything
+  special. See [Prerender](#interaction-with-build-time-prerender).
+
+## Step 1: Install
+
+```bash
+pnpm add -D @rolldown/plugin-babel @babel/core babel-plugin-react-compiler
+# TypeScript users also want the Babel core types:
+pnpm add -D @types/babel__core
+```
+
+React 19 ships `react/compiler-runtime` in-tree, so there is **no** extra runtime
+to install and **no** `target` option to set. Only pass `target: '17' | '18'` to
+`reactCompilerPreset()` if you are on an older React.
+
+## Step 2: Wire it in
+
+### Default (non-Cloudflare) app
+
+```ts
+// vite.config.ts
+import { defineConfig } from "vite";
+import react, { reactCompilerPreset } from "@vitejs/plugin-react";
+import babel from "@rolldown/plugin-babel";
+import { rango } from "@rangojs/router/vite";
+
+export default defineConfig({
+  plugins: [
+    react(),
+    babel({ presets: [reactCompilerPreset()] }),
+    rango(), // supplies @vitejs/plugin-rsc
+  ],
+});
+```
+
+### Cloudflare app
+
+```ts
+// vite.config.ts
+import { cloudflare } from "@cloudflare/vite-plugin";
+import react, { reactCompilerPreset } from "@vitejs/plugin-react";
+import babel from "@rolldown/plugin-babel";
+import { defineConfig } from "vite";
+import { rango } from "@rangojs/router/vite";
+
+export default defineConfig({
+  plugins: [
+    react(),
+    babel({ presets: [reactCompilerPreset()] }),
+    rango({ preset: "cloudflare" }),
+    cloudflare({
+      /* ... */
+    }), // supplies @vitejs/plugin-rsc
+  ],
+});
+```
+
+## What gets compiled (client-only)
+
+`reactCompilerPreset()` carries
+`rolldown.applyToEnvironmentHook: (env) => env.config.consumer === "client"`, so
+even though the babel plugin is top-level, the transform runs **only in the
+`client` environment**:
+
+| Environment | `consumer` | Compiled? |
+| ----------- | ---------- | --------- |
+| client      | `client`   | Yes       |
+| ssr         | `server`   | No        |
+| rsc         | `server`   | No        |
+
+This matches the upstream `@vitejs/plugin-rsc` example. If you genuinely need to
+compile **server** components, you would have to invoke
+`babel-plugin-react-compiler` yourself without the preset's
+`applyToEnvironmentHook` — that is outside what the example does and is not
+covered here.
+
+## Options
+
+`reactCompilerPreset()` forwards to `babel-plugin-react-compiler`:
+
+| Option                          | Effect                                                                                 |
+| ------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `compilationMode: 'annotation'` | Compile only components marked with the `"use memo"` directive, not every eligible one |
+| `target: '17' \| '18'`          | Emit `react-compiler-runtime` calls for React < 19. Omit on React 19+.                 |
+
+## Interaction with build-time prerender
+
+Nothing to configure. Rango's discovery/prerender step runs a throwaway temp Vite
+server (`createTempRscServer`) that forwards only your **resolution** plugins
+(`resolveId` / `load`). A pure transform plugin like `@rolldown/plugin-babel` is
+intentionally **not** forwarded — and that is correct: the temp runner only
+produces **data** (serialized Flight payloads + the route manifest), not shipped
+code, and React Compiler is a memoization-only transform that does not change
+rendered output. Your shipped client bundle still gets compiled, because the
+babel plugin lives in your app's top-level plugin array alongside `react()`.
+
+## Step 3: Verify the compiler actually ran
+
+A compiled module imports the cache allocator from `react/compiler-runtime` and
+calls `_c(n)`. Those two appear in **every** compiled module, so they are the
+reliable per-module signal in dev:
+
+```bash
+pnpm dev
+# fetch any client component module straight from Vite and look for the markers:
+curl -s "http://localhost:5173/src/components/SomeClientComponent.tsx" \
+  | grep -E "compiler-runtime|_c\("
+```
+
+For a production build, grep the built client bundle for the compiler's
+input-independent cache check, which has a **zero baseline** without the compiler:
+
+```bash
+pnpm build
+grep -r "Symbol.for(\"react.memo_cache_sentinel\")" dist/client/assets/ | head
+```
+
+Note the **comparison** form `$[i] === Symbol.for("react.memo_cache_sentinel")`
+is only emitted for components with input-independent JSX, so it is reliable over
+the **whole** client bundle, not necessarily in one chosen module. (React core
+also defines that symbol once with a single `=` assignment, so count comparisons,
+not the bare string.) Run the same grep over `dist/rsc` / `dist/ssr` and you
+should find **none** — that is the client-only contract.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+| Symptom                                                               | Cause / fix                                                                                                                                 |
+| --------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| Nothing is compiled; no `compiler-runtime` import anywhere            | You used `react({ babel: { plugins: [...] } })`. plugin-react v6 has no internal Babel — add `@rolldown/plugin-babel` as its own plugin.    |
+| Client compiled, but server/RSC components are not                    | Expected. `reactCompilerPreset()` is client-only (see the table). Not a bug.                                                                |
+| `Cannot find module 'babel-plugin-react-compiler'` (or `@babel/core`) | Install the peer deps from Step 1; they are not bundled by `reactCompilerPreset()`.                                                         |
+| Build pulls in `react-compiler-runtime`                               | You set `target: '17'`/`'18'` on React 19. Drop `target` — React 19 ships `react/compiler-runtime` in-tree.                                 |
+| Output looks compiled but a component misbehaves                      | The component likely breaks the Rules of React. Fix the component, or scope the compiler with `compilationMode: 'annotation'` while you do. |

-Look up response type from the merged route map by URL pattern:
+`Rango.PathResponse` is ambient (no import) and reads from `RegisteredRoutes`,
+which carries response payload metadata. That surface is **not** auto-wired —
+without the augmentation below, `Rango.PathResponse` falls back to the generated
+path/search map, or to a permissive map when nothing is generated. Either way, it
+has no response payload metadata, so response routes resolve to
+`ResponseEnvelope<never>`:
 
 ```typescript
-import type { PathResponse } from "@rangojs/router/client";
+// router.tsx
+export const router = createRouter({ document: Document }).routes(urlpatterns);
 
+declare global {
+  namespace Rango {
+    interface RegisteredRoutes extends typeof router.routeMap {}
+  }
+}
+```
+
+With that in place, look up the response type by URL pattern (ambient, no import):
+
+```typescript
 // After include("/api", apiPatterns) in main urls
-type Health = PathResponse<"/api/health">;
+type Health = Rango.PathResponse<"/api/health">;
 // = ResponseEnvelope<{ status: string; timestamp: number }>
 
 // RSC routes return ResponseEnvelope<never>
-type Home = PathResponse<"/">;
+type Home = Rango.PathResponse<"/">;
 // = ResponseEnvelope<never>
 ```
 
+`Rango.PathResponse` also accepts a **concrete path**, so it types a `fetch`
+wrapper whose response is inferred from the path you pass:
+
+```typescript
+import { href } from "@rangojs/router/client";
+
+async function get<T extends Rango.Path>(
+  path: T,
+): Promise<Rango.PathResponse<T>> {
+  return fetch(href(path)).then((r) => r.json());
+}
+
+const product = await get("/api/products/42"); // ResponseEnvelope<Product>
+```
+
+Pattern keys (`/:id`) match exactly; a concrete path under a _nested_ dynamic
+route can match several patterns and union their responses.
+
+`Rango.PathResponse` reports the JSON **wire** shape, not the handler's raw
+return: `path.json()` serializes with `JSON.stringify`, so a handler returning
+`{ createdAt: Date }` resolves to `ResponseEnvelope<{ createdAt: string }>`. This
+runs through the ambient `Rango.JsonSerialize<T>` transform (`Date -> string`,
+honors `toJSON()`, drops functions/`undefined`, `bigint -> never`). The
+`RouteResponse` surface below applies the same `Rango.JsonSerialize` transform, so
+both response lookups report the identical wire shape.
+
+For local/scoped response typing without global augmentation, prefer
+`RouteResponse<typeof patterns, "routeName">` (see the section above) — it reads
+the response payload straight from the `urls()` patterns and needs no
+`RegisteredRoutes` wiring.

+## View Transitions
+
+A route can configure its own `transition()` — the wrap goes around the route's component itself (routes are leaves; they have no separate default outlet channel). If the route component renders a `<ParallelOutlet />` directly, that slot remains inside the route's VT subtree, so prefer mounting parallel slots in a layout when combining intercept modals with route-level transitions. See [skills/view-transitions](../view-transitions/SKILL.md) for examples and the wrap-location rules across layouts, routes, and slots.
+
+## Handler-attached `.use`
+
+Page handlers can carry their own loader, middleware, error boundaries, parallels, and other defaults via a `.use` callback — so the page is self-contained and reusable across mount sites without re-wiring the same items.
+
+```typescript
+const ProductPage: Handler<"/product/:slug"> = async (ctx) => {
+  const product = await ctx.use(ProductLoader);
+  return <ProductView product={product} />;
+};
+ProductPage.use = () => [
+  loader(ProductLoader),
+  loading(<ProductSkeleton />),
+  middleware(async (ctx, next) => {
+    await next();

+  }),
+];
+
+// Mount site has no per-page wiring — defaults travel with the handler.
+path("/product/:slug", ProductPage, { name: "product" });
+```
+
+Explicit `use()` at the mount site merges with `handler.use` (handler defaults first, explicit second). See [skills/handler-use](../handler-use/SKILL.md) for the merge order, allowed item types per mount site, and override semantics.
