"@ryan0x44 @arktypeio Ehh. cute idea but I want to use actual TypeScript types TypeScript types embedded in strings"

"@lukeisandberg I'm not asking for stronger guarantees from TypeScript. I'm asking for a way to generate runtime type check code for a TS type so that I don't have to use Zod for that"

"@marcaruel You should be able to use a TypeScript type for that Descriptions can come from doc comments"

"@michael_timbs @allseteslla I don't agree. Using Zod means I have to understand two different languages for expressing my types and the Zod one is much harder to read than TypeScript. If I could just generate Zod from TS then I could get everything Zod does without learning or looking at Zod schemas"

"@AtharvSankpal1 @saltyAom Maybe but being able to write all my types once as TS is more valuable"

"@ryan0x44 @arktypeio @colinhacks If you are just implementing UI feedback then you don't need a perfect email validator. A simple regex will be fine. You are probably doing it in the client UI anyway not using Zod"

"No offense to the Zod devs but I don't understand why Zod has to exist. Why can't we just use the schema format we already have that is TypeScript Why is there no way to construct a schema validator from a TypeScript type This seems like such an obvious thing"

"@michael_timbs Are you asking if I know how TypeScript works"

"@allseteslla @michael_timbs It's not necessary for absolutely all validation to happen in the validator. The application code can validate things and anything complex can be done there. I just want something that automates the tedious gruntwork of validating simple types"

"Folks stop explaining to me how type erasure works. I have designed and implemented erasure-based type systems before. There is no law that says you can't generate runtime code from a TypeScript type. Only self-imposed limitations"
