Overview

Implement comprehensive form validation including client-side validation, server-side synchronization, and real-time error feedback with TypeScript type safety.

When to Use

• User input validation
• Form submission handling
• Real-time error feedback
• Complex validation rules
• Multi-step forms

Quick Start

Minimal working example:

// types/form.ts
export interface LoginFormData {
  email: string;
  password: string;
  rememberMe: boolean;
}

export interface RegisterFormData {
  email: string;
  password: string;
  confirmPassword: string;
  name: string;
  terms: boolean;
}

// components/LoginForm.tsx
import { useForm, SubmitHandler } from 'react-hook-form';
import { LoginFormData } from '../types/form';

const emailRegex = /^[^\s@]+@[^\s@]+\.[^\s@]+$/;

export const LoginForm: React.FC = () => {
  const {
    register,
    handleSubmit,
// ... (see reference guides for full implementation)
