vuelidate VS formkit

The Vue ecosystem is packed with many great form validation libraries, VeeValidate, Vuelidate, and FormKit just to name a few.

Vuelidate: A lightweight library that provides a simple and intuitive way to handle form validation. It has a small footprint and minimal impact on an application’s overall size and performance. Its bundle size is 12.4kb minified and 3.7kb gzipped

The two I heard of are Vuelidate and Vee-validate. Any opinion? Thanks.

In today's article I will show you a clean and simple approach on handling form errors in VueJS 3.0 with vuelidate. Additionally I will be using NuxtJS 3.0 and TypeScript because they are some of my most favourite tools to use in modern frontend environment.

There you have the answer https://github.com/vuelidate/vuelidate/issues/1078 It's most about contributor insecurities rather than if it's working or not. Try it out, make some tests and see for yourself if it's stable or not.

Seems a similar question was asked on the github issues tab https://github.com/vuelidate/vuelidate/issues/1062

Although there are some great validation libraries for Vue (VeeValidate and Vuelidate to name two), FormKit provides pre-written validation rules which are then declared using the validation prop. This makes them easier to read and reduces room for developer errors:

if you're going to be dealing with forms then FormKit (not a UI library) is worth your time. It's an architecture-first form framework — can be used with any UI library if you prefer.

I probably say this too often, but I'm fascinated by how much the Vue ecosystem has been thriving lately. Recent releases of such awesome libraries like FormKit or Radix Vue are great examples of how well the Vue ecosystem has matured lately.

FormKit is a library that helps you build complex forms in Vue. It is built on top of Vue 3 and uses the composition API. It is very easy to use and has a lot of features. You can check out Formkit Website for more information.

If you're in the Vue space (and you will be if you're using Nuxt) then I highly recommend checking out FormKit (I'm one of the maintainers). It's not a UI library — it's a framework for managing your form architecture and data. Forms are some of the most complicated front-end work you'll do if you do them well and FormKit will save you many many tears. If you want a quick primer on "why formkit?" here's a 3-minute video that demonstrates how much simpler a FormKit form will be to manage vs one hand-written in Vue.

If your project requires building forms then FormKit can save you a lot of effort.

Starting with Beta 17 — FormKit ships with a new Zod plugin that you can use to validate your forms.

Unironically this, but it's called FormKit. 🥲

When you get to doing the forms in your project be sure to give FormKit a look!
