forms and validation in a React app, one schema for client and serverpublished
react-hook-form 7.87.0 with zod 4.5.4 through @hookform/resolvers 5.9.1. The same zod schema validates the submitted body on the server, so a field can never be required in one place and optional in the other, and react-hook-form keeps inputs uncontrolled so typing does not re-render the form.
