href prop not working on `Link` component?

I am confused. What am I missing? https://stackblitz.com/edit/tanstack-router-tn3dvcbd?file=src%2Froutes%2Findex.tsx I have a Link component with href set to "https://google.com". I would expect this to display an anchor with that URL

link is not for external targets just use an <a>

OK thanks for the info! What is the href attribute about then? 🤔

href is calculated by router for internal links so that you can open an internal link in a new tab

OK! Thanks for the quick support, that's awesome 🙏
