A TypeScript library providing NestJS integration for Zod schema validation. It lets you create DTOs from Zod schemas, validate request bodies/queries/params, serialize responses, and generate OpenAPI docs.

Use cases

• validate nestjs request bodies with zod
• create DTOs from zod schemas in nestjs
• generate openapi docs from zod schemas
• serialize nestjs responses with zod
• replace class-validator with zod in nestjs
• validate query params and url params with zod

When to choose

• you use NestJS and prefer Zod over class-validator/class-transformer
• you want type-safe validation and response serialization in one package
• you need OpenAPI/Swagger docs generated from Zod schemas

When to avoid

• you don't use NestJS
• your project is committed to class-validator-based DTOs
• you don't use TypeScript or Zod
