Hey everyone! đź‘‹
When working on modern JavaScript and TypeScript applications—especially when integrating with frameworks like Angular—handling form validation is a daily task. However, I often found myself wanting a clean, straightforward solution without bringing in heavy, bloated dependencies.
To solve this, I decided to build and publish my own open-source package from scratch: universal-form-validator.
What it does:
Zero Dependencies: Keeps your project bundle lightweight and fast.
Flexible Schemas: Easily handles common validation requirements like strings, strict numbers, emails, dates, and passwords.
Framework Friendly: Tested and structured to plug smoothly into modern workflows.
If you are looking for a clean, minimalist validation engine for your next project, you can check out the repository or install it directly via npm:
npm:
npm i universal-form-validator
GitHub: universal-form-validator
I built this to solve a specific workflow problem, and I'd love to hear your thoughts or feedback if you try it out. Happy coding! 🚀

I was particularly drawn to the "Zero Dependencies" aspect of universal-form-validator, as I've often found myself grappling with the trade-off between feature-rich libraries and bundle size. By keeping the library lightweight, you've addressed a common pain point for many developers. I'm curious to know more about how you handled complex validation scenarios, such as conditional logic or nested object validation, within the library - were there any specific design decisions or challenges that arose during implementation?
