Walkthrough

This PR updates documentation link targets across multiple React framework docs, adds a new Netlify section and related adjustments to the hosting guide, and cleans up a merge conflict in the server-routes doc. No API, exported entities, or runtime behavior changed.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary of Changes
React docs link path normalization docs/start/framework/react/authentication-overview.md, docs/start/framework/react/authentication.md, docs/start/framework/react/code-execution-patterns.md, docs/start/framework/react/environment-variables.md, docs/start/framework/react/migrate-from-next-js.md	Updated internal documentation links: many ./ paths changed to ../, some references switched to absolute routes under /router/latest/.... Minor formatting tweak (blockquote) in authentication.md. No content/logic changes.
Hosting guide updates docs/start/framework/react/hosting.md	Adjusted deployment anchors (references to Cloudflare Pages → Cloudflare Workers, updated Railway/Node.js anchors), added a new Netlify section with a plugin/config example, and small formatting edits.
Server routes cleanup docs/start/framework/react/server-routes.md	Updated cross-reference for "The Server Entry Point" to ../server-entry-point and removed unresolved merge conflict markers in the "Setting headers in the response" section.

Poem

I twitch my ears and hop through text,
I nudge the paths where links connect.
A Netlify nook I tuck in tight,
Cloudflare footprints set just right.
Conflict cleared — I thump with cheer, 🐇✨

Pre-merge checks and finishing touches

✅ Passed checks (3 passed)

Check name	Status	Explanation
Description Check	✅ Passed	Check skipped - CodeRabbit’s high-level summary is enabled.
Title Check	✅ Passed	The title "docs(start): fix broken links" accurately and concisely summarizes the primary change, which updates many documentation link targets within the docs/start framework/react pages. It follows conventional commit-style formatting and is clear to reviewers scanning history. Minor edits in the PR (removed merge conflict markers and a small Netlify addition) are secondary and do not make the title misleading.
Docstring Coverage	✅ Passed	No functions found in the changes. Docstring coverage check skipped.

454-478: Unresolved merge conflict markers and broken code fence.

The section contains conflict markers and a malformed code block. This will break the page render.

Apply this fix to resolve the conflict and restore the example:

 ```ts
// routes/hello.ts
import { createFileRoute } from '@tanstack/react-router'
-- <<<<<<< HEAD- =======- ```-- > > > > > > > 582e8c7a1 (docs: Start overhaul)- > > > > > > > export const Route = createFileRoute('/hello')({-+ export const Route = createFileRoute('/hello')({
server: {
handlers: {
GET: async ({ request }) => {
return new Response('Hello, World!', {
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'text/plain',
},
})
},
},
},
--})--// Visit /hello to see the response-// Hello, World!--````+ })++ // Visit /hello to see the response+ // Hello, World!+ ```

21-28: Duplicate Cloudflare bullet — remove duplicate & standardize anchor
Two identical cloudflare-pages bullets link to #cloudflare-workers; remove the duplicate in docs/start/framework/react/hosting.md (lines 21–28) and standardize the Cloudflare target across the docs (choose cloudflare-pages, cloudflare-workers, or cloudflare-module).
