+# Solid Start (`@tanstack/solid-start`)
+
+This skill builds on start-core. Read [start-core](../../../start-client-core/skills/start-core/SKILL.md) first for foundational concepts.
+
+This skill covers the Solid-specific bindings, setup, and patterns for TanStack Start.
+
+> **CRITICAL**: All code is ISOMORPHIC by default. Loaders run on BOTH server and client. Use `createServerFn` for server-only logic.
+
+> **CRITICAL**: Do not confuse `@tanstack/solid-start` with SolidStart (`@solidjs/start`). They are completely different frameworks with different APIs.
+
+> **CRITICAL**: Types are FULLY INFERRED. Never cast, never annotate inferred values.
+
+## Package API Surface
+
+`@tanstack/solid-start` re-exports everything from `@tanstack/start-client-core` plus:
+
+- `useServerFn` — Solid hook for calling server functions from components
+
+All core APIs (`createServerFn`, `createMiddleware`, `createStart`, `createIsomorphicFn`, `createServerOnlyFn`, `createClientOnlyFn`) are available from `@tanstack/solid-start`.
+
+Server utilities (`getRequest`, `getRequestHeader`, `setResponseHeader`, `setCookie`, `getCookie`, `useSession`) are imported from `@tanstack/solid-start/server`.
+
+## Full Project Setup
+
+### 1. Install Dependencies
+
+```bash
+npm i @tanstack/solid-start @tanstack/solid-router solid-js
+npm i -D vite vite-plugin-solid typescript
+```
+
+### 2. package.json
+
+```json
+{
+  "type": "module",
+  "scripts": {
+    "dev": "vite dev",
+    "build": "vite build",
+    "start": "node .output/server/index.mjs"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### 3. tsconfig.json
+
+```json
+{
+  "compilerOptions": {
+    "jsx": "preserve",
+    "jsxImportSource": "solid-js",
+    "moduleResolution": "Bundler",
+    "module": "ESNext",
+    "target": "ES2022",
+    "skipLibCheck": true,
+    "strictNullChecks": true
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### 4. vite.config.ts
+
+```ts
+import { defineConfig } from 'vite'
+import { tanstackStart } from '@tanstack/solid-start/plugin/vite'
+import solidPlugin from 'vite-plugin-solid'
+
+export default defineConfig({
+  plugins: [
+    tanstackStart(), // MUST come before solid plugin
+    solidPlugin({ ssr: true }),
+  ],
+})
+```
+
+### 5. Router Factory (src/router.tsx)
+
+```tsx
+import { createRouter } from '@tanstack/solid-router'
+import { routeTree } from './routeTree.gen'
+
+export function getRouter() {
+  const router = createRouter({
+    routeTree,
+    scrollRestoration: true,
+  })
+  return router
+}
+```
+
+### 6. Root Route (src/routes/\_\_root.tsx)
+
+```tsx
+import {
+  Outlet,
+  createRootRoute,
+  HeadContent,
+  Scripts,
+} from '@tanstack/solid-router'
+import { HydrationScript } from 'solid-js/web'
+import { Suspense } from 'solid-js'
+
+export const Route = createRootRoute({
+  head: () => ({
+    meta: [
+      { charSet: 'utf-8' },
+      { name: 'viewport', content: 'width=device-width, initial-scale=1' },
+      { title: 'My TanStack Start App' },
+    ],
+  }),
+  // shellComponent renders the HTML document shell (always SSR'd)
+  shellComponent: RootDocument,
+})
+
+function RootDocument(props: { children: any }) {
+  return (
+    <html>
+      <head>
+        <HydrationScript />
+      </head>
+      <body>
+        <HeadContent />
+        <Suspense>{props.children}</Suspense>
+        <Scripts />
+      </body>
+    </html>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+### 7. Index Route (src/routes/index.tsx)
+
+```tsx
+import { createFileRoute } from '@tanstack/solid-router'
+import { createServerFn } from '@tanstack/solid-start'
+
+const getGreeting = createServerFn({ method: 'GET' }).handler(async () => {
+  return 'Hello from TanStack Start!'
+})
+
+export const Route = createFileRoute('/')({
+  loader: () => getGreeting(),
+  component: HomePage,
+})
+
+function HomePage() {
+  const greeting = Route.useLoaderData()
+  return <h1>{greeting()}</h1>
+}
+```
+
+## useServerFn Hook
+
+Use `useServerFn` to call server functions from Solid components with automatic redirect handling:
+
+```tsx
+import { createServerFn, useServerFn } from '@tanstack/solid-start'
+import { createSignal } from 'solid-js'
+
+const updatePost = createServerFn({ method: 'POST' })
+  .inputValidator((data: { id: string; title: string }) => data)
+  .handler(async ({ data }) => {
+    await db.posts.update(data.id, { title: data.title })
+    return { success: true }
+  })
+
+function EditPostForm(props: { postId: string }) {
+  const updatePostFn = useServerFn(updatePost)
+  const [title, setTitle] = createSignal('')
+
+  return (
+    <form
+      onSubmit={async (e) => {
+        e.preventDefault()
+        await updatePostFn({ data: { id: props.postId, title: title() } })
+      }}
+    >
+      <input value={title()} onInput={(e) => setTitle(e.target.value)} />
+      <button type="submit">Save</button>
+    </form>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+Unlike the React version, `useServerFn` does NOT wrap the returned function in any memoization (no `useCallback` equivalent needed — Solid's `setup` runs once).
+
+## Solid-Specific Components
+
+All routing components from `@tanstack/solid-router` work in Start:
+
+- `<Outlet>` — renders matched child route
+- `<Link>` — type-safe navigation
+- `<Navigate>` — declarative redirect
+- `<HeadContent>` — renders head tags via `@solidjs/meta` (must be in `<body>` — uses portals to inject into `<head>`)
+- `<Scripts>` — renders body scripts (must be in `<body>`)
+- `<Await>` — renders deferred data with `<Suspense>`
+- `<ClientOnly>` — renders children only after hydration
+- `<CatchBoundary>` — error boundary wrapping `Solid.ErrorBoundary`
+
+## Hooks Reference
+
+All hooks from `@tanstack/solid-router` work in Start. Most return `Accessor<T>` — call the accessor to read:
+
+- `useRouter()` — router instance (NOT an Accessor)
+- `useRouterState()` — `Accessor<T>`, subscribe to router state
+- `useNavigate()` — navigation function (NOT an Accessor)
+- `useSearch({ from })` — `Accessor<T>`, validated search params
+- `useParams({ from })` — `Accessor<T>`, path params
+- `useLoaderData({ from })` — `Accessor<T>`, loader data
+- `useMatch({ from })` — `Accessor<T>`, full route match
+- `useRouteContext({ from })` — `Accessor<T>`, route context
+- `Route.useLoaderData()` — `Accessor<T>`, typed loader data (preferred in route files)
+- `Route.useSearch()` — `Accessor<T>`, typed search params (preferred in route files)
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+### 1. CRITICAL: Importing from wrong package
+
+```tsx
+// WRONG — this is the SPA router, NOT Start
+import { createServerFn } from '@tanstack/solid-router'
+
+// CORRECT — server functions come from solid-start
+import { createServerFn } from '@tanstack/solid-start'
+
+// CORRECT — routing APIs come from solid-router (re-exported by Start too)
+import { createFileRoute, Link } from '@tanstack/solid-router'
+```
+
+### 2. CRITICAL: Forgetting to call Accessor
+
+Most hooks return `Accessor<T>`. Must call to read the value.
+
+```tsx
+// WRONG
+const data = Route.useLoaderData()
+return <h1>{data.message}</h1>
+
+// CORRECT
+const data = Route.useLoaderData()
+return <h1>{data().message}</h1>
+```
+
+### 3. HIGH: Missing Scripts component
+
+Without `<Scripts />` in the root route's `<body>`, client JavaScript doesn't load and the app won't hydrate.
+
+### 4. HIGH: Solid plugin before Start plugin in Vite config
+
+```ts
+// WRONG
+plugins: [solidPlugin(), tanstackStart()]
+
+// CORRECT
+plugins: [tanstackStart(), solidPlugin()]
+```
