client-ts VS Yup

We’ve open-sourced @xata.io/importer our core code which parses CSV files - if you're interested in building on top of our importer, we invite you to contribute.

At Xata, we’re relying on the Postgres logical replication events quite a bit. Having a reliable stream with everything that has changed in the database is really useful in a number of cases, including data syncing to Elasticsearch, web-hooks, attachments clean-up, and more. One of the configuration parameters for logical replication is the so called “replica identity”:

Xata.io is the ultimate solution for Jamstack Developers looking to quickly set up their database schema and streamline their development workflow 🥇✨

In this article, we are going to use Xata as a serverless database, think of Xata as a platform where we can create and access the database inside our application through API endpoints.

One of the key benefits of the JAMstack for frontend developers is the ability to focus on building user interfaces without the need for server-side rendering or complex backend logic. This allows for a more agile and efficient development process, as well as the ability to leverage a wide range of third-party APIs and services to build dynamic and engaging user experiences. They can use their favorite UI frameworks (Like React, Vue, Svelte). If there is a need for a custom backend API (other than a headless CMS), there are plenty of tools which makes this relatively simple like for example Heroku, Firebase, Xata, restdb.io and codehooks.io 😄

Not too long ago, Xata (spreadsheet-like database) reached out to me and got me the freedom to touch code from time to time, but mainly focus on product design and I was thrilled, it was my dream job and I could proudly put designer on my job title for the first time without feeling that I’m not good enough and I better do JavaScript, or Storybook, or estimations. I was working on developer tool, with developers, but doing designs and research!

Xata.io is a serverless database for Jamstack apps that combines the power of a traditional database, making it easier to manage, consume, and store data. Step 1: Go to https://xata.io/ and click start building for free you will; have the option to signup with Google, Github, or your Email. Step 2: From the dashboard, click start from scratch

For this application to manage the database of your application, you need to create an account with Xata by clicking here. It is completely free to create an account and should take about a minute.

In this article, we will learn how to use Xata, a serverless, branch-able, scalable, consistent, highly available, searchable database to build a resume builder’s backend, and Cloudinary, a cloud-based asset management service, to manage all assets. At the same time, Next.js will be used to handle the front-end development.

Formik and Yup empower you to build robust and user-friendly forms in React. By leveraging their capabilities, you can streamline form management, reduce boilerplate code, and ensure a smooth user experience with clear and effective validation. Refer to the official documentation of Formik https://formik.org/ and Yup https://github.com/jquense/yup for in-depth exploration and advanced use cases.

On the other hand, Formik gives you components that you can mix and match to have fully working forms. Formik has builtin support for Yup for data validation.

I was recently building an application that, among other features, allows a user to submit chess players and chess games to a database. I was utilizing Yup for form schema and Formik for error handling, validation, and form submission.

Sometimes our use case might not require a full-blown form validation library though and we might already have a schema validation library installed in our project such as Zod or Yup. In that case, a simple Vue composable is all that is needed to provide a great form validation UX.

As for validation libraries, I would recommend Yup. With it you define your validation rules in a schema object which can be used where ever you need to do validation. It also integrates very nicely with react-hook-form which is what I’ve moved to using for any nontrivial forms.

I'm currently experimenting with the fantastic Redwood framework. However, while going through the excellent tutorial, I didn't find any guidance on using data validation libraries like Yup, Zod, Vest, etc. So, I had to do some investigation and came up with a solution. This article describes the implementation of validation with Zod in a fresh Redwood app. You can find the sources at this github repository.

Do you want to create a form in your React Native app but don't know how? Then this post is for you! In this post I will teach you how to create forms using a library called Formik , as well as how to integrate non-native form components with Formik. Additionally you will learn how to validate forms using Yup (which Formik supports out of the box)

The project has two authenticated pages - Home and Profile. Unauthenticated users can Sign In, Sign Up, Reset Password and Update Password. All of this is powered by Next.js app router, with usage of both Client and Server Components, and Supabase handling all of the authentication related functionality. Forms are built using Formik and Yup for field validation.

Similarly to zod or yup, attributes are now defined through function builders. For TS users, this removes the need for the as const statement previously needed for type inference (so don't forget to remove it when you migrate 🙈).
