  • Translating zod errors with next-intl
    5 projects | dev.to | 5 Mar 2024
    When starting a new project with Next.js these days, next-intl and zod are my go to libraries for internationalization and schema validation, respectively. Of course, when using zod for client-facing validations I would like to translate potential error messages. The package zod-i18n can be used to achieve this for i18next, a popular alternative internationalization library. This means that by using this library as starting point one can quickly achieve zod translation with next-intl.
