Conform
A type-safe form validation library utilizing web fundamentals to progressively enhance HTML Forms with full support for server frameworks like Remix and Next.js.
Overview:
CONFORM is a form validation library designed for use with the Remix and React Router frameworks. It utilizes a progressive enhancement approach and offers several features to simplify the validation process. This library provides automatic type coercion, simplified integration through event delegation, field name inference, focus management, and accessibility support. CONFORM is lightweight, with a compressed size of approximately 5kb.
Features:
- Progressive enhancement first APIs: CONFORM follows a progressive enhancement approach, allowing developers to easily enhance their forms with validation without sacrificing the basic functionality for users without JavaScript.
- Automatic type coercion with Zod: The library leverages Zod, a powerful runtime type checking library, to automatically coerce the input values based on the defined validation schema.
- Simplified integration through event delegation: CONFORM simplifies the integration process by utilizing event delegation, reducing the need for manual configuration and allowing for a more streamlined development experience.
- Field name inference: This library is capable of inferring field names based on input elements, saving developers from manually specifying them.
- Focus management: CONFORM includes focus management features, ensuring that users are directed to the relevant fields with validation errors for a smoother user experience.
- Accessibility support: The library takes into consideration accessibility best practices, making it easier for developers to create forms that are inclusive and accessible for all users.
- Next.js
Next.js is a React-based web framework that enables server-side rendering, static site generation, and other powerful features for building modern web applications.
- React
React is a widely used JavaScript library for building user interfaces and single-page applications. It follows a component-based architecture and uses a virtual DOM to efficiently update and render UI components
- Eslint
ESLint is a linter for JavaScript that analyzes code to detect and report on potential problems and errors, as well as enforce consistent code style and best practices, helping developers to write cleaner, more maintainable code.
- Typescript
TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript, providing optional static typing, classes, interfaces, and other features that help developers write more maintainable and scalable code. TypeScript's static typing system can catch errors at compile-time, making it easier to build and maintain large applications.
