SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Builds secure, server-side form handling in Next.js by implementing server actions with TanStack Form validation, ensuring input is validated on the server and never trusted on the client.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Shared form options and zod-based validation that work across client and server for sign-up, data submission, or API mutations.
  • Server-side error handling using ServerValidateError to return precise field and form errors to the UI.
  • End-to-end patterns including validation, data handling, and safe responses for real-world workflows in Next.js apps.

Quick Start

Create a server action with use server, wire it to a client form, and utilize a shared form options file to enable end-to-end validation.

FAQPage Schema
How do I validate Next.js server actions with zod and TanStack Form?โ–ผ

Validate Next.js server actions by defining a shared zod schema and applying it through TanStack Form options. This pattern ensures input is validated on the server as the source of truth before processing mutations, returning structured success or error responses to the client.

What is the best way to handle server-side form validation in Next.js?โ–ผ

Server-side form validation in Next.js is best handled using server actions with TanStack Form. It enforces server-side validation using zod schemas and returns precise field and form errors via ServerValidateError to the client UI.

Can I use TanStack Form with Next.js server actions for API mutations?โ–ผ

Yes, you can use TanStack Form with Next.js server actions for API mutations. The implementation applies shared form options across the client-server boundary, using zod schemas to validate data submission workflows and return safe, structured responses.

How do I return field errors from a Next.js server action to the client?โ–ผ

Return field errors from a Next.js server action by throwing a ServerValidateError. This mechanism passes precise validation errors generated by the shared zod schema back to the TanStack Form client UI for display.

Do I need separate validation schemas for client and server in Next.js?โ–ผ

No, you do not need separate validation schemas. The implementation uses a shared form options file with zod schemas that work across both client and server, ensuring consistent validation logic and reducing code duplication.

Why does my TanStack Form submit invalid data to my Next.js server action?โ–ผ

TanStack Form submits invalid data if server-side validation is not enforced as the source of truth. You must implement server actions with zod schemas to validate input on the server, ensuring client input is never trusted and preventing invalid data processing.
