#tRPC

Explore how Zod schema validation and tRPC solve the pain of REST APIs with manual types. Covers router setup, client-side type inference, error handling with Zod, migrating from REST, and when tRPC is and isn't the right tool.

Every REST API I built had type mismatches between frontend and backend. tRPC eliminated the gap entirely—no API specs, no codegen, just types that flow.
