Forms are at the backbone of the web, but building and validating them can be a tangled mess of code and frustration. As they get more complex, they become harder to write, maintain, and validate effectively.
Introducing a new way of validating forms in React, using Vest - a library that changes the way we handle form validation using the expressive syntax and style of testing libraries.
We will cover the history of forms on the web, why they are so hard to validate - and how to fix them. We'll step up our form validation game by taking a complex form, and together write its validations using Vest.
