Migrating to use Superjson
I currently have a tRPC router that is being used by a web app & React native client. My current version does not use superjson. I want to start using superjson as my transformer. Is there an easy way for me to make this migration?
When I tried just starting to use Superjson, our React native client started running into errors because the old mobile client was not using superjson but the server was. I wish I could access context in my transformer so I could choose to only do the transformation for new clients. Any other ideas on how I can make the switch-over while maintaining backwards compatibility for older clients?

I don't know a painless way of doing it as it can't be conditionally enabled/disabled
maybe you just need to spin up endpoints for the old clients that doesn't use superjson or force update all clients
If I'm merging multiple routers together, is there a way for me to apply the superjson transformer to just 1 router?
no
Honestly sounds like a situation to have a load balancer which checks the app version via headers/useragent and a second deployment without the transformer in place
