M@O2K For me it’s the developer experience. Even in a non-Next monorepo with, for example, a client app and an Express server app, I could define types for every API and export/import them, plus validation with zod or similar, etc., but I know from many many years of writing both server and client side API code tRPC makes the entire process way faster with much less thinking.
Iimporting types from the backend manually is significantly more work than having trpc handle it for you, with trpc it’s free
You don’t need it to achieve full stack type safety, it just makes it way way faster and easier, and more reliable. Any time you’re manually assigning types there’s a chance you can screw it up. Trpc never screws its types up
