 By default, TanStack Router parses and serializes your search params automatically. Depending on your needs though, you may want to customize the serialization process.
 
-To do so, you can [use `Router`'s `parseSearch` and `stringifySearch` options combined with the `parseSearchWith` and `stringifySearchWith` utilities](../docs/api#search-param-parsing-and-serialization).
+To do so, [use `Router`'s `parseSearch` and `stringifySearch` options](../docs/api#search-param-parsing-and-serialization):
 
-For example: We can reimplement the default parser/serializer with the following code:
+```tsx
+  import {
+    Router,
+    parseSearchWith,
+    stringifySearchWith,
+  } from '@tanstack/react-router';
+  import qs from 'query-string';
+
+  // For example, we use `query-string` to render arrays in bracket notation:
+  // output: ?key[]=value1&key[]=value2
+
+  function customStringifier(searchObj) {
+    return qs.stringify(searchString, { arrayFormat: 'bracket' });
+  }
+
+  function customParser(searchString) {
+    return qs.parse(searchString, { arrayFormat: 'bracket' });
+  }
+
+  const router = new Router({
+    stringifySearch: customStringifier,
+    parseSearch: customParser,
+  })
+```

+Additionally, you can [use the `parseSearchWith` and `stringifySearchWith` utilities](../docs/api#search-param-parsing-and-serialization) to parse and serialize the search values specifically.
