Valibot schema validation

[IanVS]

There is a new, lighterweight alternative to zod that has just been released, called Valibot. https://www.builder.io/blog/introducing-valibot.

What would it take to be able to use their schemas with react-hook-form?

One approach (on a per-form basis) would be to follow the example in the RHF docs:

https://react-hook-form.com/advanced-usage#CustomHookwithResolver

(They used Yup in the example, but you could code it with whatever validation logic you want.)

A more comprehensive approach would be to implement your own resolver so that it can be reused. The existing ones all live in the "@hookform/resolvers" package on GitHub:

https://github.com/react-hook-form/resolvers

I didn't see any specific how-to instructions for building one, but there's lots of examples there.

Well, it does have a valibot resolver.

Great, thanks for making that, @erikshestopal!
