The default in framework mode is an explicit config file exporting an array built with the route, index, layout and prefix helpers from @react-router/dev/routes. File name conventions are no longer the default.

Remix style flat file routing is still available: install @react-router/fs-routes and spread flatRoutes() into that array. The two styles can be combined in one config.

The root route is app/root.tsx and it must render the document shell including the Outlet, Scripts and ScrollRestoration components. Forgetting Scripts produces a page that server renders correctly and then never hydrates, with nothing in the console to explain it. Route modules are code split per entry in routes.ts, so importing a route module directly from another module quietly defeats that splitting.
