22 hours agoZod v4 Available with Major Performance Improvements and Introduction of Zod Mini
Zod v4 introduces a series of changes across three key areas: performance, API design, and tooling support. Benchmarks published by the maintainers show 14x faster string parsing, 7x faster array parsing, and 6.5x faster object parsing compared to Zod 3. These improvements are paired with reductions in TypeScript type instantiation, helping projects compile faster in large codebases. Another headline feature in this release is the introduction of @zod/mini, a lightweight distribution weighing just ~1.9 KB gzipped, designed for tree-shakable validation in modern frontend applications.
