Build Fully Type-Safe Projects with TypeScript and Zod

While TypeScript is often perceived as providing complete type safety, it only prevents potential issues during build time leaving runtime issues to still pose a threat. The popular schema validation library, Zod helps bridge this gap. In this talk, we will unpack the core features of Zod and showcase its declarative, type-safe nature and seamless integration with TypeScript. We will explore how Zod streamlines intricate validation tasks like handling user inputs, API responses, configuration files and much more.
