Zod's Object Parsing: A Game Changer for TypeScript

Instead of having to check each property of an object or do some funny type checking yourself, with zod, you can validate the shape of an object with parsing! It's super convenient and can also benefit the security of your web projects. Let's take a look at how it works!

Nice quick demonstration of Zod, its is super nice. I really enjoy working with react hook form (rhf) and Zod for forms validation, can recommend!

Finest video I have seen on zod🔥🤯

Is it possible to parse an unknown object without schema and get the types of the unknown objects components?

[@stevebendersky2056]

so should I use safeparse or parse?

Sir please consider my request for setting up prettier and eslint in our project and what are the other precaution we can take in mid to large size project in order to scale it.

[@deletrious]

If you can’t set up your own config files why are you building a mid to large project?

[@RemotHuman]

you can use ts-node to run typescript files without it being as much of a pain to set up

[@RemotHuman]

scratch that esrun is way better

[@atoz8729]

Is there any way to convert directly user object to zod schema .ie can we use user object at the time of zod object creation ? Please help

Kneel before Zod

[@skyzane2735]

What about Valibot? I see few people are now saying in youtube that Valibot would be better than Zod.

saying javascript does not highlight syntax errors but typescript does is just wrong, both js and ts are purely text with some defined rules, so if you don’t have highlighting of the errors you are just lacking a static analyzer tool like eslint on your text editor. It is just that vscode comes with tsserver that would highlight you these errors when writing typescript but it is not like “javascript does not have static code analysis” 😅😅
