+feat: add [`<Link />`](https://refine.dev/docs/routing/components/link/) component to navigate to a resource with a specific action. Under the hood, It uses [`useGo`](https://refine.dev/docs/routing/hooks/use-go/) to generate the URL.
+
+## Usage
+
+```tsx
+import { Link } from "@refinedev/core";
+
+const MyComponent = () => {
+  return (
+    <>
+      {/* simple usage, navigates to `/posts` */}
+      <Link to="/posts">Posts</Link>
+      {/* complex usage with more control, navigates to `/posts` with query filters */}
+      <Link
+        go={{
+          query: {
+            // `useTable` or `useDataGrid` automatically use this filters to fetch data if `syncWithLocation` is true.
+            filters: [
+              {
+                operator: "eq",
+                value: "published",
+                field: "status",
+              },
+            ],

+        }}

+chore: From now on, [`useLink`](https://refine.dev/docs/routing/hooks/use-link/) returns [`<Link />`](https://refine.dev/docs/routing/components/link/) component instead of returning [`routerProvider.Link`](https://refine.dev/docs/routing/router-provider/#link).

+
+`<Link />` is a component that is used to navigate to different pages in your application.
+
+It's uses [`routerProvider.Link`](/docs/routing/router-provider/#link) under the hood, if [`routerProvider`](/docs/routing/router-provider) is not provided, it will be use [`<a>`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/a) HTML element.
+
+## Usage
+
+```tsx
+import { Link } from "@refinedev/core";
+
+const MyComponent = () => {
+  return (
+    <>
+      {/* simple usage, navigates to `/posts` */}
+      <Link to="/posts">Posts</Link>
+      {/* complex usage with more control, navigates to `/posts` with query filters */}
+      <Link
+        go={{
+          query: {
+            // `useTable` or `useDataGrid` automatically use this filters to fetch data if `syncWithLocation` is true.
+            filters: [
+              {
+                operator: "eq",
+                value: "published",
+                field: "status",
+              },
+            ],
+          },
+          to: {
+            resource: "posts",

+          },
+        }}
+      >
+        Posts
+      </Link>
+    </>
+  );
+};
+```
+
+## Props
+
+The `<Link />` component takes all the props from the [`routerProvider.Link`](/docs/routing/router-provider/#link) and the props that an `<a>` HTML element uses.
+
+### go
+
+When `go` prop is provided, this component will use [`useGo`](/docs/routing/hooks/use-go/) to create the URL to navigate to. It's accepts all the props that `useGo.go` accepts.
+
+It's useful to use this prop when you want to navigate to a resource with a specific action.
+
+:::caution
+
+- `routerProvider` is required to use this prop.
+- When `to` prop is provided, `go` will be ignored.
+
+:::
+
+### to
+
+The URL to navigate to.
+
+## Type support with generics
+
+`<Link />` works with any routing library because it uses [`routerProvider.Link`](/docs/routing/router-provider/#link) internally. However, when importing it from `@refinedev/core`, it doesn't provide type support for your specific routing library. To enable full type support, you can use generics.
+
+```tsx
+import type { LinkProps } from "react-router-dom";
+import { Link } from "@refinedev/core";
+
+const MyComponent = () => {
+  return (
+    // Omit 'to' prop from LinkProps (required by react-router-dom) since we use the 'go' prop
+    <Link<Omit<LinkProps, "to">>
+      // Props from "react-router-dom"
+      replace={true}
+      unstable_viewTransition={true}
+      preventScrollReset={true}
+      // Props from "@refinedev/core"
+      go={{
+        to: {
+          resource: "posts",
+          action: "list",
+        },
+      }}
+    >
+      Posts
+    </Link>
+  );
+};
