🎯 Changes

Replaces the Will come soon placeholder in docs/framework/solid/guides/ssr.md with a full guide covering Solid Query's server rendering model with SolidStart:

  • Solid Query's hydration model (useQuery built on createResource, no dehydrate/hydrate/HydrationBoundary in application code — Solid's own resource streaming carries the resolved snapshot to the client, which hydrates the query cache internally)
  • Initial setup (creating the QueryClient per request, the <Suspense> boundary)
  • Using useQuery directly, with and without an ErrorBoundary
  • Prefetching with route.load
  • Streaming with deferStream
  • Error handling (the server forces throwOnError: true and retry: false, which differs from client defaults)
  • Tips, Tricks and Caveats (staleness timing, server memory/gcTime)

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The Solid Query SSR guide replaces a placeholder with documentation about hydration, request-scoped clients, suspense, errors, prefetching, streaming, staleness, and server cache behavior.

Changes

Solid SSR Guide

Layer / File(s) Summary
Document SolidStart SSR behavior
docs/framework/solid/guides/ssr.md
The guide covers automatic hydration, request-scoped QueryClient setup, suspense, direct queries, error boundaries, route prefetching, deferred streaming, server errors, staleness, and cache memory behavior.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~4 minutes

Change: Other

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to e1216

Readers may handle SSR query failures incorrectly because the guide overstates ErrorBoundary behavior. Correct the guidance; the remaining merge risk is bounded.

🟡 Minor · Qualify the server error-handling guarantee. · ssr.md:175-184

docs/framework/solid/guides/ssr.md:175-184
🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Qualify the server error-handling guarantee.

When a server query starts pending and later fails without data, the server subscriber resolves the error result instead of rejecting the resource. query.isError and query.error can therefore surface without reaching the nearest ErrorBoundary. Setting throwOnError: true on the client remains useful, but it does not guarantee the same outcome during SSR.

Suggested fix
-On the server, `useQuery` always throws when a query fails — regardless of the `throwOnError` option — so it's caught by the nearest `<ErrorBoundary>` rather than surfacing as `query.isError`. This is different from the client, where a failed query reports `isError`/`error` unless you opt in to throwing with `throwOnError: true`. Retries are also disabled on the server, so a query throws on its first failure rather than retrying first.
+On the server, `useQuery` does not always throw when a query fails. If a query starts pending and then fails without data, the server subscriber resolves the error result, so `query.isError`/`error` can surface instead of reaching the nearest ErrorBoundary. The client reports `isError`/`error` by default and throws when `throwOnError: true`. Retries are disabled on the server, so the query reaches its first error without retrying.
 
-If a query is read with `useQuery` on both the server and the client, set `throwOnError: true` on it explicitly so the client matches what the server already does — otherwise the same failure throws during SSR but only sets `isError` once it's running on the client:
