What problem does it solve?
This guide assists developers migrating validation logic from Zod v3 to Zod v4, consolidating patterns to avoid breaking changes and maintain consistency.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Updated primitives and top-level validators: z.email(), z.uuid(), z.url(), and z.string().min(...) for common constraints, plus z.object for shapes.
- Comprehensive schema coverage: validation patterns for objects, arrays, unions, refinements, and error handling aligned with Zod 4 APIs.
- Migration guidance with examples: side-by-side v3 vs v4 code snippets showing equivalent schemas and parsing results.
- Transformations and error handling: support for coercions, preprocess, and clear error mapping in Zod 4 style.
Quick Start
Update your Zod 3 schemas to Zod 4 by replacing old APIs with top-level validators (z.email, z.uuid, z.url) and adapting object schemas and error handling.
