  1. Yup

    Dead simple Object schema validation

    Because of its ease of usage, Yup is well-liked and frequently used in front-end validation, particularly when combined with React and tools like Formik. Compared to VineJS or Zod, it might not function as well with complex structures, but its chainable API makes developing schemas simple.

  3. joi

    Discontinued The most powerful data validation library for JS [Moved to: https://github.com/sideway/joi] (by hapijs)

    A powerful library often used in Node.js backends is called joi. Although its API can feel heavier than VineJS and Zod's lightweight approach, it gives more flexibility and manages complicated validation for deeply nested objects. For server-side apps that require sophisticated validation, it's perfect.

  4. ajv

    The fastest JSON schema Validator. Supports JSON Schema draft-04/06/07/2019-09/2020-12 and JSON Type Definition (RFC8927)

    Speed and complete JSON schema compliance are the main priorities of AJV. Though it lacks the user-friendly APIs that Zod or VineJS has, it's great for validating JSON data, especially in APIs. But for tasks that require high efficiency, like validating huge JSON datasets, it's ideal.
