localLink | tRPC

localLink({ router }) runs calls against a router in the same process, with no HTTP in between. The client, its types and the links before it work as they do over the network, which suits tests, server code and apps that bundle the router with the client.

router: the router to call.
createContext(): makes the ctx of each call. The handler's createContext doesn't run, since there is no request (Server-side calls).
layer: provides the Effect services the router needs, as the handler's layer does.
serializer: inputs and outputs round-trip through it as over the wire, jsonSerializer by default. false passes values by reference, so they keep native types.
Without other links to run, createRouterClient(router, { ctx }) calls a router in process with less setup (Server-side calls).
