Discussion on: Using Array.Reduce to Streamline Your JavaScript Object Validations

Frontend form validation is not done for security, it's for user experience.

Backend validation is security, ideally frontend validation should be so good that non-malign users will mostly never hit those backend validation errors.

Imho frontend and backend validations serve completely different purposes and cannot directly be compared.

Frontend form validation is a mixture of good user experience with security in mind.

Respectfully, frontend validation has absolutely zero to do with security.
