fp-ts Validation Patterns

This skill covers validation patterns using fp-ts, focusing on error accumulation, form validation, and API input validation.

Core Concepts

Either for Validation

Either<E, A> represents a computation that can fail with error E or succeed with value A.

import * as E from 'fp-ts/Either'
import { pipe } from 'fp-ts/function'

// Basic validation function signature
type Validation<E, A> = E.Either<E, A>
