React v8-to-v9 migration checklist

Before starting, run intent load @tanstack/table-core#migrate-v8-to-v9. Audit its entire shared checklist and read the detailed core mappings for APIs present in the application. This checklist adds the React-specific changes.

Framework prerequisite: React 18 or newer (react >=18).

Adapter audit

  • Replace useReactTable with useTable; remove any temporary useLegacyTable from @tanstack/react-table/legacy.
  • Keep model inputs stable and use explicit tableFeatures plus its row-model slots. Audit every shared change through the core checklist.
  • Replace render reads with selected table.state, table.Subscribe, or useSelector. Atom/store snapshots alone do not subscribe React.
  • Pair each controlled state slice with its updater callback, or supply a stable React Store atom. Remove the global onStateChange option.
  • Check compiler-memoized children hiding builder-method reads; subscribe inside the child or pass the selected value to it.
  • Use table.FlexRender or standalone FlexRender where appropriate; flexRender remains supported.
  • Introduce tableOptions or createTableHook only for repeated conventions; preserve app wrapper and typed-context boundaries.

Load the affected details

When the audit finds old React construction, state, rendering, or app-hook code, read adapter migration details before editing it. For a replacement render scaffold, read getting started. For controlled or stale state after migration, read table state.

Shared pinning, sizing, sorting, selection, prototype-method, type, and registry changes stay in the core migration references. Renaming useReactTable alone does not complete the migration.

Verify the migration

  • Type-check against the installed v9 adapter and exercise every enabled client/manual feature flow.
  • Verify external state writes, reactive data replacement, and the framework rendering paths changed above.
  • Complete the core checklist, including layout and selection behavior when those features are used.
  • Replace temporary stockFeatures when the target is explicit feature tree-shaking and remove useLegacyTable.

API discovery

Inspect node_modules/@tanstack/react-table/dist/index.d.ts and the exported adapter declarations. Use node_modules/@tanstack/table-core/dist/index.d.ts for shared APIs.
