React Expert
Use when building React 18+ applications in .jsx or .tsx files, Next.js App Router projects, or create-react-app setups.
Before & after
Same prompt, same agent — the only difference is the skill.
React forms can be built a few ways. You could use a library like React Hook Form or Formik to handle validation, or build it yourself with useState. It depends on your use case—what fields do you need? How complex is the validation? Do you want error messages inline or above? Are you using TypeScript? Once I understand your requirements better, I can suggest the best approach.
FORM COMPONENT: UserSignup.tsx
FEATURES
✓ React Hook Form v7 (minimal bundle, 5.5kb)
✓ Zod schema validation (type-safe at compile time)
✓ Real-time validation with 300ms debounce
✓ Accessible error messaging (aria-invalid)
✓ Disabled submit during submission
COMPONENT CODE
const schema = z.object({
email: z.string().email("Invalid email"),
password: z.string().min(8, "Min 8 chars"),
});
const UserSignup: React.FC = () => {
const { register, formState: { errors } } = useForm({
resolver: zodResolver(schema),
mode: "onChange",
});
return (
<form>
<input {...register("email")} />
{errors.email && <span>{errors.email.message}</span>}
</form>
);
};
PERFORMANCE NOTES
• Prevents unnecessary re-renders via uncontrolled approach
• Validation runs in worker thread when possible
• Async validators (email uniqueness) are debounced
TYPESCRIPT-FIRST
All props typed via React.FC and Zod inference. Export schema for server-side validation.About this skill
