SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires [].

What problem does it solve?

This Skill enables building type-safe, validated forms by unifying React Hook Form (v7) with Zod (v4) for client and server validation via a single schema.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Type-safe client-side forms with full TypeScript inference via z.infer.
  • Unified client/server validation using a single Zod schema, simplifying maintenance.
  • Supports complex patterns like nested objects, arrays, and multi-step forms with server-side error mapping.

Quick Start

  1. Install dependencies: npm install
  2. Start the dev server: npm run dev
  3. Open http://localhost:5173 to see the forms in action. Then check templates/basic-form.tsx and templates/server-validation.ts for concrete implementations.

FAQPage Schema
How do I build type-safe forms with React Hook Form and Zod?

To build type-safe forms with React Hook Form and Zod, use a single shared Zod schema with zodResolver to enable client-side validation and TypeScript inference via z.infer. This unifies validation logic and form typing.

What's the best way to handle server-side validation with React Hook Form?

The best way to handle server-side validation with React Hook Form is mapping server-side errors back to the client using a unified Zod schema. This approach simplifies maintenance by ensuring both client and server rely on the same validation rules.

Can I use a single Zod schema for both client and server form validation?

Yes, you can use a single Zod schema for both client and server form validation. This Skill unifies React Hook Form with Zod, allowing you to maintain one schema source for multi-step forms and server-side error mapping.

How do I validate nested objects and arrays in a multi-step form?

To validate nested objects and arrays in a multi-step form, apply a shared Zod schema through zodResolver within React Hook Form. This configuration supports complex form structures while maintaining strict TypeScript inference.

Do I need @hookform/resolvers to connect Zod with React Hook Form?

Yes, you need @hookform/resolvers to connect Zod with React Hook Form. It provides the zodResolver function required to bridge Zod v4 schemas with React Hook Form v7 for automated type-safe form validation.
