Using fs-routes without the Vite plugin

[edwjusti]

I was wondering if I can use the fs-routes package without the Vite plugin. Something like this: https://tanstack.com/router/latest/docs/framework/react/quick-start#using-file-based-route-generation

The react-router Vite plugin currently requires a root.tsx route, but I would like to have more control over the generated HTML, so that's why I want to discard my root.tsx and generate a plain index.html with Vite.

Is it a possibility or am I out of luck with this config setup?

@edwjusti without using the Vite plugin (aka framework mode) you would have to create your own system for doing file based routing

However, you can use SPA Mode which will generate an index.html file from your root.tsx. If you do that, then file-based routing

I would like to have more control over the generated HTML

I'd love to know what you feel you're limited on. You should have full control over the generated HTML

We ended up going with a custom route list generator. The limitations we encountered were related to the generated scripts in the <Scripts /> component. We were hoping to have a "manifest" or direct reference for the list of scripts generated by the react-router cli. We need an asset manifest because we are integrating our react app into a legacy codebase and our react app would be booted in a custom root (without replacing the entire page HTML).
