📄 Description

Middleware Integration with Better Auth

This PR adds documentation for using TanStack Start's middleware feature together with Better Auth to protect routes that require authentication.

🔧 Changes

➕ Added

  • A new Middleware section in the TanStack Start integration docs.
  • A complete example demonstrating how to create an authentication middleware that:
    • Checks for a valid session using auth.api.getSession()
    • Redirects unauthenticated users to the login page
    • Applies the middleware to route definitions via the server.middleware array

🧠 Why This Is Needed

The existing TanStack Start integration docs only covered:

  • Mounting the auth handler
  • Managing cookies

However, they didn’t explain how to protect routes from unauthenticated users a very common requirement.

This PR fills that gap by documenting how to leverage TanStack Start’s built-in middleware system to guard pages using Better Auth, making it easier for developers to build secure applications.

Summary by cubic

Adds middleware docs to the TanStack Start + Better Auth integration to show how to protect routes by checking the session and redirecting to /login when not authenticated. This fills the gap in the guide so developers can guard pages easily.

  • New Features
    • New Middleware section with an auth middleware example using auth.api.getSession and redirect.
    • Route usage example showing server.middleware to protect specific pages.

Written for commit d4a6e3be69. Summary will update automatically on new commits.
