If you're using TypeScript, your types disappear at runtime. That means API responses, form inputs, and external data (things that can change at runtime and are out of your control) aren't actually type-safe. In this video, you'll learn how to use Zod to add real runtime validation while keeping full TypeScript type safety. Zod is a TypeScript-first schema validation library that lets you define schemas once and automatically infer types from them. No more duplicating TypeScript interfaces and validation logic. With Zod, your types and validation stay perfectly in sync.
