Ozef

Opinionated Zod-empowered forms for React.

Ozef builds a typed form component from a z.object(), z.strictObject(), or z.looseObject() schema. It owns form state, validation state, submit state, and field wiring while letting you bring your own inputs, buttons, labels, and layout.

Install

npm i ozef zod jotai

Ozef expects React, React DOM, Jotai, and Zod to be installed by the app. The current peer range targets Zod 4.

Supported Schemas

Ozef currently supports this practical Zod subset:

z.string()
z.templateLiteral()
z.number()
z.boolean()
z.enum(["a", "b"]) for radio groups
z.union([z.literal("a"), z.literal("b")]) for native selects
.optional(), .nullable(), and .default() wrappers around the above

Ozef infers native input types from these Zod string formats, including their equivalent chained z.string() validators:

Zod format	Native input
`z.email()`	`type="email"`
`z.url()` and `z.httpUrl()`	`type="url"`
`z.e164()`	`type="tel"`
`z.iso.date()`	`type="date"`
`z.iso.time()`	`type="time"` with `step="any"`

Other string formats—including z.uuid(), z.guid(), and z.iso.datetime()—render as type="text". A native datetime-local input does not accept the timezone suffix required by Zod's default ISO datetime schema.

Other Zod types may work only if they behave like one of those primitives, but they are not part of the supported API yet.

Basic Usage

import ozef from "ozef";
import { z } from "zod";

const ProfileForm = ozef({
  schema: z.object({
    name: z.string().min(2, "Name is too short"),
    age: z.number().min(1),
    newsletter: z.boolean(),
  }),
  defaults: {
    name: "Ada",
    age: 36,
    newsletter: true,
  },
});

export function Profile() {
  return (
    <ProfileForm
      onSubmit={async (data) => {
        // data is typed as { name: string; age: number; newsletter: boolean }
        await saveProfile(data);
      }}
    >
      <ProfileForm.Field name="name" />
      <ProfileForm.Error name="name" />

      <ProfileForm.Field name="age" />
      <ProfileForm.Error name="age" />

      <ProfileForm.Field name="newsletter" />

      <ProfileForm.Submit>Save</ProfileForm.Submit>
    </ProfileForm>
  );
}

The name-based API works with any schema key, including keys like first_name, billing.email, or keys you only know dynamically.

PascalCase Sugar

Ozef also generates PascalCase components for simple schemas:

<ProfileForm.Field.Name />
<ProfileForm.Error.Name />
<ProfileForm.Field.Age />

Use this when the schema keys are friendly component names. Use <Form.Field name="..."> when keys are dynamic or not valid component-looking identifiers.

Radio And Select Fields

Use z.enum for radio values:

const SettingsForm = ozef({
  schema: z.object({
    size: z.enum(["small", "large"]),
  }),
});

<SettingsForm.Field name="size">
  <SettingsForm.Radio name="size" value="small" />
  <SettingsForm.Radio name="size" value="large" />
</SettingsForm.Field>;

Use a union of string literals for native selects:

const ColorForm = ozef({
  schema: z.object({
    color: z.union([z.literal("red"), z.literal("blue")]),
  }),
});

<ColorForm.Field name="color">
  <ColorForm.Option name="color" value="red" />
  <ColorForm.Option name="color" value="blue" />
</ColorForm.Field>;

The generated PascalCase version still works:

<ColorForm.Field.Color>
  <ColorForm.Field.Color.Red />
  <ColorForm.Field.Color.Blue />
</ColorForm.Field.Color>

Custom Components

Ozef owns form state and validation; your component owns the markup and visual design. A custom component should use one of two integration patterns:

Native-compatible controls—such as a plain <input> or shadcn Input—spread Ozef's inputProps. Those props already contain the current value, inferred type, accessibility state, and wired onChange/onBlur handlers.
Controlled composite controls—such as shadcn Checkbox, Select, or RadioGroup—translate field.value, field.setValue(), and field.touch() into that component's API.

Slots and responsibilities

Ozef option	Replaces	Use it for
`Input`	Every generated text, number, and checkbox field	Native inputs, shadcn `Input`, and a branch to shadcn `Checkbox`
`InputRadio`	Each generated radio item	A native-style radio item; not a `RadioGroup` root
`Select`	The complete generated native select	shadcn/Radix `Select` or another controlled select
`Option`	Each native `<option>`	Styling/wrapping native selects only
`Error`	`Form.Error` and `Form.Errors` output	Design-system error text
`Submit`	`Form.Submit`	Design-system buttons and loading states

Every field-like slot receives two Ozef metadata props:

field: { name, value, error, invalid, touched, required, setValue, touch }
inputProps: the native props Ozef would put on its default element, including name, type, value or checked, accessibility attributes, onChange, and onBlur

Keep these rules in mind:

Spread inputProps, not the entire custom component props object, onto a DOM element. The latter also contains field, inputProps, and your custom props.
Custom props passed to <Form.Field>, such as label or hint, also appear inside inputProps. Remove them before spreading onto a DOM element.
With a native-compatible input, do not also call field.setValue(); the inputProps.onChange handler already does it.
With a composite control, call field.setValue(nextValue) when it changes and field.touch() when the user has interacted or leaves the control.
Render errors either inside the custom field with field.error or separately with <Form.Error name="..." />. Doing both displays the same error twice.

Your own native-style input

This is the smallest complete adapter for a component that ends in a native <input>:

import type { OzefInputProps } from "ozef";
import ozef from "ozef";
import { z } from "zod";

type TextInputProps = OzefInputProps & {
  label: string;
};

function TextInput({ label, field, inputProps }: TextInputProps) {
  const { label: _label, ...nativeInputProps } = inputProps ?? {};
  const errorId = nativeInputProps.id
    ? `${nativeInputProps.id}-error`
    : undefined;

  return (
    <div>
      <label htmlFor={nativeInputProps.id}>{label}</label>
      <input
        {...nativeInputProps}
        aria-describedby={
          field?.error ? errorId : nativeInputProps["aria-describedby"]
        }
        className={
          field?.invalid
            ? `${nativeInputProps.className ?? ""} input-error`.trim()
            : nativeInputProps.className
        }
      />
      {field?.error ? (
        <p id={errorId} role="alert">
          {field.error}
        </p>
      ) : null}
    </div>
  );
}

const LoginForm = ozef({
  schema: z.object({
    email: z.email(),
  }),
  Input: TextInput,
});

<LoginForm>
  <LoginForm.Field name="email" id="email" label="Email" />
  <LoginForm.Submit>Sign in</LoginForm.Submit>
</LoginForm>;

Because this component renders field.error itself, do not also render <LoginForm.Error name="email" /> for this field.

shadcn Input and Checkbox

shadcn components are source code in your application, so you can adapt them directly. Add the primitives you need, for example:

bunx shadcn@latest add input checkbox label button select radio-group

shadcn Input is native-compatible, but shadcn Checkbox uses checked/onCheckedChange. One Input slot can handle both by branching on Ozef's generated inputProps.type:

import type { ComponentProps } from "react";
import { Checkbox } from "@/components/ui/checkbox";
import { Input as UiInput } from "@/components/ui/input";
import { Label } from "@/components/ui/label";
import type { OzefInputProps } from "ozef";
import ozef from "ozef";
import { z } from "zod";

type FieldInputProps = OzefInputProps &
  ComponentProps<"input"> & {
    label: string;
  };

function FieldInput({ field, inputProps, label }: FieldInputProps) {
  const { label: _label, ...nativeInputProps } = inputProps ?? {};
  const errorId = nativeInputProps.id
    ? `${nativeInputProps.id}-error`
    : undefined;

  if (nativeInputProps.type === "checkbox") {
    return (
      <div className="space-y-2">
        <div className="flex items-center gap-2">
          <Checkbox
            id={nativeInputProps.id}
            name={nativeInputProps.name}
            checked={field?.value === true}
            disabled={nativeInputProps.disabled}
            required={field?.required}
            aria-invalid={field?.invalid}
            aria-describedby={field?.error ? errorId : undefined}
            onCheckedChange={(checked) => {
              field?.setValue(checked === true);
              field?.touch();
            }}
            onBlur={() => field?.touch()}
          />
          <Label htmlFor={nativeInputProps.id}>{label}</Label>
        </div>
        {field?.error ? (
          <p id={errorId} role="alert" className="text-sm text-destructive">
            {field.error}
          </p>
        ) : null}
      </div>
    );
  }

  return (
    <div className="space-y-2">
      <Label htmlFor={nativeInputProps.id}>{label}</Label>
      <UiInput
        {...nativeInputProps}
        aria-invalid={field?.invalid}
        aria-describedby={
          field?.error ? errorId : nativeInputProps["aria-describedby"]
        }
      />
      {field?.error ? (
        <p id={errorId} role="alert" className="text-sm text-destructive">
          {field.error}
        </p>
      ) : null}
    </div>
  );
}

const PreferencesForm = ozef({
  schema: z.object({
    email: z.email(),
    marketing: z.boolean(),
  }),
  Input: FieldInput,
});

<PreferencesForm>
  <PreferencesForm.Field name="email" id="email" label="Email" />
  <PreferencesForm.Field
    name="marketing"
    id="marketing"
    label="Email updates"
  />
  <PreferencesForm.Submit>Save</PreferencesForm.Submit>
</PreferencesForm>;

If your project uses shadcn's higher-level Field layout components, place the same adapter logic inside that layout; Ozef should remain the owner of value and validation state.

shadcn Select

For shadcn/ui or Radix Select, map the Ozef field state into Radix's controlled value and onValueChange props instead of spreading inputProps onto every part:

import {
  SelectContent,
  SelectItem,
  SelectTrigger,
  SelectValue,
  Select as UiSelect,
} from "@/components/ui/select";
import type { OzefInputProps } from "ozef";
import ozef from "ozef";
import { z } from "zod";

type SelectInputProps = OzefInputProps & {
  placeholder?: string;
  options?: Array<{ label: string; value: string }>;
};

function SelectInput({
  field,
  inputProps,
  placeholder = "Select an option",
  options = [],
}: SelectInputProps) {
  return (
    <UiSelect
      name={inputProps?.name}
      value={String(field?.value ?? "")}
      disabled={inputProps?.disabled}
      required={field?.required}
      onValueChange={(value) => {
        field?.setValue(value);
        field?.touch();
      }}
      onOpenChange={(open) => {
        if (!open) {
          field?.touch();
        }
      }}
    >
      <SelectTrigger
        id={inputProps?.id}
        aria-invalid={field?.invalid}
        aria-required={field?.required}
        onBlur={() => field?.touch()}
      >
        <SelectValue placeholder={placeholder} />
      </SelectTrigger>
      <SelectContent>
        {options.map((option) => (
          <SelectItem key={option.value} value={option.value}>
            {option.label}
          </SelectItem>
        ))}
      </SelectContent>
    </UiSelect>
  );
}

const TicketForm = ozef({
  schema: z.object({
    priority: z.union([
      z.literal("low"),
      z.literal("normal"),
      z.literal("high"),
    ]),
  }),
  Select: SelectInput,
});

<TicketForm>
  <TicketForm.Field
    name="priority"
    id="priority"
    placeholder="Priority"
    options={[
      { label: "Low", value: "low" },
      { label: "Normal", value: "normal" },
      { label: "High", value: "high" },
    ]}
  />
  <TicketForm.Error name="priority" />
  <TicketForm.Submit>Create ticket</TicketForm.Submit>
</TicketForm>;

Because this replaces the entire native select, render SelectItem components inside the adapter. Do not also render TicketForm.Option children.

shadcn RadioGroup

For shadcn/ui or Radix RadioGroup, control the whole group with Form.useField(name). InputRadio replaces one radio item at a time, so it is not the right abstraction for a composite RadioGroup root:

import { Label } from "@/components/ui/label";
import { RadioGroup, RadioGroupItem } from "@/components/ui/radio-group";
import ozef from "ozef";
import { z } from "zod";

type Frequency = "daily" | "weekly" | "never";

const NotificationForm = ozef({
  schema: z.object({
    frequency: z.enum(["daily", "weekly", "never"]),
  }),
});

function FrequencyField() {
  const frequency = NotificationForm.useField("frequency");

  return (
    <fieldset>
      <legend>Notification frequency</legend>
      <RadioGroup
        name={frequency.name}
        value={frequency.value ?? ""}
        required={frequency.required}
        aria-invalid={frequency.invalid}
        aria-describedby={frequency.error ? "frequency-error" : undefined}
        onValueChange={(value) => {
          frequency.setValue(value as Frequency);
          frequency.touch();
        }}
        onBlur={() => frequency.touch()}
      >
        {[
          ["daily", "Daily"],
          ["weekly", "Weekly"],
          ["never", "Never"],
        ].map(([value, label]) => (
          <div key={value} className="flex items-center gap-2">
            <RadioGroupItem id={`frequency-${value}`} value={value} />
            <Label htmlFor={`frequency-${value}`}>{label}</Label>
          </div>
        ))}
      </RadioGroup>
      {frequency.error ? (
        <p
          id="frequency-error"
          role="alert"
          className="text-sm text-destructive"
        >
          {frequency.error}
        </p>
      ) : null}
    </fieldset>
  );
}

<NotificationForm>
  <FrequencyField />
  <NotificationForm.Submit>Save</NotificationForm.Submit>
</NotificationForm>;

This example renders frequency.error inline. Alternatively, remove that paragraph and use <NotificationForm.Error name="frequency" />.

Native radio and option slots

For native radio items, replace the InputRadio slot and keep using Form.Radio:

import type { ComponentProps } from "react";
import type { OzefInputProps } from "ozef";
import ozef from "ozef";
import { z } from "zod";

type RadioInputProps = OzefInputProps &
  ComponentProps<"input"> & {
    label: string;
  };

function RadioInput({ label, field, inputProps }: RadioInputProps) {
  const { label: _label, ...nativeInputProps } = inputProps ?? {};

  return (
    <label data-invalid={field?.invalid || undefined}>
      <input {...nativeInputProps} />
      {label}
    </label>
  );
}

const SizeForm = ozef({
  schema: z.object({
    size: z.enum(["small", "large"]),
  }),
  InputRadio: RadioInput,
});

<SizeForm.Field name="size">
  <SizeForm.Radio name="size" value="small" label="Small" />
  <SizeForm.Radio name="size" value="large" label="Large" />
</SizeForm.Field>;

The Option slot only applies to native select fields. With shadcn Select, put SelectItem rendering inside your custom Select component instead.

import type { ComponentProps } from "react";
import ozef from "ozef";
import { z } from "zod";

function NativeOption({
  name: _name,
  ...props
}: ComponentProps<"option"> & { name?: string }) {
  return <option {...props} />;
}

const NativeThemeForm = ozef({
  schema: z.object({
    theme: z.union([z.literal("system"), z.literal("dark")]),
  }),
  Option: NativeOption,
});

<NativeThemeForm.Field name="theme">
  <NativeThemeForm.Option name="theme" value="system">
    System
  </NativeThemeForm.Option>
  <NativeThemeForm.Option name="theme" value="dark">
    Dark
  </NativeThemeForm.Option>
</NativeThemeForm.Field>;

Error and submit slots

Use Error and Submit for design-system error text and buttons:

import type { ComponentProps } from "react";
import ozef from "ozef";
import { z } from "zod";
import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button";

function FieldError({
  error,
  ...props
}: ComponentProps<"span"> & { error?: string }) {
  return (
    <span {...props} role="alert" className="text-sm text-destructive">
      {error}
    </span>
  );
}

function SubmitButton({
  submitting,
  children,
  ...props
}: ComponentProps<typeof Button> & { submitting?: boolean }) {
  return (
    <Button {...props} type="submit" disabled={submitting || props.disabled}>
      {submitting ? "Saving..." : children}
    </Button>
  );
}

const AccountForm = ozef({
  schema: z.object({
    email: z.string().email(),
  }),
  Error: FieldError,
  Submit: SubmitButton,
});

<AccountForm.Field name="email" />
<AccountForm.Error name="email" />
<AccountForm.Submit>Save</AccountForm.Submit>;

Legacy metadata props like errorful and radioValue are still passed for existing custom inputs, but new components should prefer field.invalid, field.error, and inputProps.

Hooks

Use Form.useField(name) when composing custom field UI:

function EmailPreview() {
  const email = LoginForm.useField("email");

  return (
    <button type="button" onClick={() => email.setValue("ada@example.com")}>
      Use {email.value || "default email"}
    </button>
  );
}

Use Form.useForm() for form-level controls:

function FormToolbar() {
  const form = LoginForm.useForm();

  return (
    <>
      <button type="button" onClick={form.reset}>
        Reset
      </button>
      <button
        type="button"
        onClick={() => form.setError("email", "Email is already taken")}
      >
        Set server error
      </button>
      {form.submitting ? "Saving..." : null}
    </>
  );
}

Submit Errors

onSubmit receives utility helpers. Use setError for server-side errors:

const AccountForm = ozef({
  schema: z.object({
    email: z.string().email(),
  }),
});

<AccountForm
  onSubmit={async (data, utils) => {
    const result = await createAccount(data);

    if (!result.ok) {
      utils.setError("email", "Email is already taken");
      utils.setError("submission", "Please fix the highlighted fields");
    }
  }}
>
  <AccountForm.Field name="email" />
  <AccountForm.Error name="email" />
  <AccountForm.Error name="submission" />
  <AccountForm.Submit>Create account</AccountForm.Submit>
</AccountForm>;

Render every visible error with:

<AccountForm.Errors />

Ozef

Opinionated Zod-empowered forms for React.

Install

npm i ozef zod jotai

Ozef expects React, React DOM, Jotai, and Zod to be installed by the app. The current peer range targets Zod 4.

Supported Schemas

Ozef currently supports this practical Zod subset:

z.string()
z.templateLiteral()
z.number()
z.boolean()
z.enum(["a", "b"]) for radio groups
z.union([z.literal("a"), z.literal("b")]) for native selects
.optional(), .nullable(), and .default() wrappers around the above

Ozef infers native input types from these Zod string formats, including their equivalent chained z.string() validators:

Zod format	Native input
`z.email()`	`type="email"`
`z.url()` and `z.httpUrl()`	`type="url"`
`z.e164()`	`type="tel"`
`z.iso.date()`	`type="date"`
`z.iso.time()`	`type="time"` with `step="any"`

Other Zod types may work only if they behave like one of those primitives, but they are not part of the supported API yet.

Basic Usage

import ozef from "ozef";
import { z } from "zod";

const ProfileForm = ozef({
  schema: z.object({
    name: z.string().min(2, "Name is too short"),
    age: z.number().min(1),
    newsletter: z.boolean(),
  }),
  defaults: {
    name: "Ada",
    age: 36,
    newsletter: true,
  },
});

export function Profile() {
  return (
    <ProfileForm
      onSubmit={async (data) => {
        // data is typed as { name: string; age: number; newsletter: boolean }
        await saveProfile(data);
      }}
    >
      <ProfileForm.Field name="name" />
      <ProfileForm.Error name="name" />

      <ProfileForm.Field name="age" />
      <ProfileForm.Error name="age" />

      <ProfileForm.Field name="newsletter" />

      <ProfileForm.Submit>Save</ProfileForm.Submit>
    </ProfileForm>
  );
}

The name-based API works with any schema key, including keys like first_name, billing.email, or keys you only know dynamically.

PascalCase Sugar

Ozef also generates PascalCase components for simple schemas:

<ProfileForm.Field.Name />
<ProfileForm.Error.Name />
<ProfileForm.Field.Age />

Use this when the schema keys are friendly component names. Use <Form.Field name="..."> when keys are dynamic or not valid component-looking identifiers.

Radio And Select Fields

Use z.enum for radio values:

const SettingsForm = ozef({
  schema: z.object({
    size: z.enum(["small", "large"]),
  }),
});

<SettingsForm.Field name="size">
  <SettingsForm.Radio name="size" value="small" />
  <SettingsForm.Radio name="size" value="large" />
</SettingsForm.Field>;

Use a union of string literals for native selects:

const ColorForm = ozef({
  schema: z.object({
    color: z.union([z.literal("red"), z.literal("blue")]),
  }),
});

<ColorForm.Field name="color">
  <ColorForm.Option name="color" value="red" />
  <ColorForm.Option name="color" value="blue" />
</ColorForm.Field>;

The generated PascalCase version still works:

<ColorForm.Field.Color>
  <ColorForm.Field.Color.Red />
  <ColorForm.Field.Color.Blue />
</ColorForm.Field.Color>

Custom Components

Ozef owns form state and validation; your component owns the markup and visual design. A custom component should use one of two integration patterns:

Native-compatible controls—such as a plain <input> or shadcn Input—spread Ozef's inputProps. Those props already contain the current value, inferred type, accessibility state, and wired onChange/onBlur handlers.
Controlled composite controls—such as shadcn Checkbox, Select, or RadioGroup—translate field.value, field.setValue(), and field.touch() into that component's API.

Slots and responsibilities

Ozef option	Replaces	Use it for
`Input`	Every generated text, number, and checkbox field	Native inputs, shadcn `Input`, and a branch to shadcn `Checkbox`
`InputRadio`	Each generated radio item	A native-style radio item; not a `RadioGroup` root
`Select`	The complete generated native select	shadcn/Radix `Select` or another controlled select
`Option`	Each native `<option>`	Styling/wrapping native selects only
`Error`	`Form.Error` and `Form.Errors` output	Design-system error text
`Submit`	`Form.Submit`	Design-system buttons and loading states

Every field-like slot receives two Ozef metadata props:

field: { name, value, error, invalid, touched, required, setValue, touch }
inputProps: the native props Ozef would put on its default element, including name, type, value or checked, accessibility attributes, onChange, and onBlur

Keep these rules in mind:

Spread inputProps, not the entire custom component props object, onto a DOM element. The latter also contains field, inputProps, and your custom props.
Custom props passed to <Form.Field>, such as label or hint, also appear inside inputProps. Remove them before spreading onto a DOM element.
With a native-compatible input, do not also call field.setValue(); the inputProps.onChange handler already does it.
With a composite control, call field.setValue(nextValue) when it changes and field.touch() when the user has interacted or leaves the control.
Render errors either inside the custom field with field.error or separately with <Form.Error name="..." />. Doing both displays the same error twice.

Your own native-style input

This is the smallest complete adapter for a component that ends in a native <input>:

import type { OzefInputProps } from "ozef";
import ozef from "ozef";
import { z } from "zod";

type TextInputProps = OzefInputProps & {
  label: string;
};

function TextInput({ label, field, inputProps }: TextInputProps) {
  const { label: _label, ...nativeInputProps } = inputProps ?? {};
  const errorId = nativeInputProps.id
    ? `${nativeInputProps.id}-error`
    : undefined;

  return (
    <div>
      <label htmlFor={nativeInputProps.id}>{label}</label>
      <input
        {...nativeInputProps}
        aria-describedby={
          field?.error ? errorId : nativeInputProps["aria-describedby"]
        }
        className={
          field?.invalid
            ? `${nativeInputProps.className ?? ""} input-error`.trim()
            : nativeInputProps.className
        }
      />
      {field?.error ? (
        <p id={errorId} role="alert">
          {field.error}
        </p>
      ) : null}
    </div>
  );
}

const LoginForm = ozef({
  schema: z.object({
    email: z.email(),
  }),
  Input: TextInput,
});

<LoginForm>
  <LoginForm.Field name="email" id="email" label="Email" />
  <LoginForm.Submit>Sign in</LoginForm.Submit>
</LoginForm>;

Because this component renders field.error itself, do not also render <LoginForm.Error name="email" /> for this field.

shadcn Input and Checkbox

shadcn components are source code in your application, so you can adapt them directly. Add the primitives you need, for example:

bunx shadcn@latest add input checkbox label button select radio-group

shadcn Input is native-compatible, but shadcn Checkbox uses checked/onCheckedChange. One Input slot can handle both by branching on Ozef's generated inputProps.type:

import type { ComponentProps } from "react";
import { Checkbox } from "@/components/ui/checkbox";
import { Input as UiInput } from "@/components/ui/input";
import { Label } from "@/components/ui/label";
import type { OzefInputProps } from "ozef";
import ozef from "ozef";
import { z } from "zod";

type FieldInputProps = OzefInputProps &
  ComponentProps<"input"> & {
    label: string;
  };

function FieldInput({ field, inputProps, label }: FieldInputProps) {
  const { label: _label, ...nativeInputProps } = inputProps ?? {};
  const errorId = nativeInputProps.id
    ? `${nativeInputProps.id}-error`
    : undefined;

  if (nativeInputProps.type === "checkbox") {
    return (
      <div className="space-y-2">
        <div className="flex items-center gap-2">
          <Checkbox
            id={nativeInputProps.id}
            name={nativeInputProps.name}
            checked={field?.value === true}
            disabled={nativeInputProps.disabled}
            required={field?.required}
            aria-invalid={field?.invalid}
            aria-describedby={field?.error ? errorId : undefined}
            onCheckedChange={(checked) => {
              field?.setValue(checked === true);
              field?.touch();
            }}
            onBlur={() => field?.touch()}
          />
          <Label htmlFor={nativeInputProps.id}>{label}</Label>
        </div>
        {field?.error ? (
          <p id={errorId} role="alert" className="text-sm text-destructive">
            {field.error}
          </p>
        ) : null}
      </div>
    );
  }

  return (
    <div className="space-y-2">
      <Label htmlFor={nativeInputProps.id}>{label}</Label>
      <UiInput
        {...nativeInputProps}
        aria-invalid={field?.invalid}
        aria-describedby={
          field?.error ? errorId : nativeInputProps["aria-describedby"]
        }
      />
      {field?.error ? (
        <p id={errorId} role="alert" className="text-sm text-destructive">
          {field.error}
        </p>
      ) : null}
    </div>
  );
}

const PreferencesForm = ozef({
  schema: z.object({
    email: z.email(),
    marketing: z.boolean(),
  }),
  Input: FieldInput,
});

<PreferencesForm>
  <PreferencesForm.Field name="email" id="email" label="Email" />
  <PreferencesForm.Field
    name="marketing"
    id="marketing"
    label="Email updates"
  />
  <PreferencesForm.Submit>Save</PreferencesForm.Submit>
</PreferencesForm>;

If your project uses shadcn's higher-level Field layout components, place the same adapter logic inside that layout; Ozef should remain the owner of value and validation state.

shadcn Select

For shadcn/ui or Radix Select, map the Ozef field state into Radix's controlled value and onValueChange props instead of spreading inputProps onto every part:

import {
  SelectContent,
  SelectItem,
  SelectTrigger,
  SelectValue,
  Select as UiSelect,
} from "@/components/ui/select";
import type { OzefInputProps } from "ozef";
import ozef from "ozef";
import { z } from "zod";

type SelectInputProps = OzefInputProps & {
  placeholder?: string;
  options?: Array<{ label: string; value: string }>;
};

function SelectInput({
  field,
  inputProps,
  placeholder = "Select an option",
  options = [],
}: SelectInputProps) {
  return (
    <UiSelect
      name={inputProps?.name}
      value={String(field?.value ?? "")}
      disabled={inputProps?.disabled}
      required={field?.required}
      onValueChange={(value) => {
        field?.setValue(value);
        field?.touch();
      }}
      onOpenChange={(open) => {
        if (!open) {
          field?.touch();
        }
      }}
    >
      <SelectTrigger
        id={inputProps?.id}
        aria-invalid={field?.invalid}
        aria-required={field?.required}
        onBlur={() => field?.touch()}
      >
        <SelectValue placeholder={placeholder} />
      </SelectTrigger>
      <SelectContent>
        {options.map((option) => (
          <SelectItem key={option.value} value={option.value}>
            {option.label}
          </SelectItem>
        ))}
      </SelectContent>
    </UiSelect>
  );
}

const TicketForm = ozef({
  schema: z.object({
    priority: z.union([
      z.literal("low"),
      z.literal("normal"),
      z.literal("high"),
    ]),
  }),
  Select: SelectInput,
});

<TicketForm>
  <TicketForm.Field
    name="priority"
    id="priority"
    placeholder="Priority"
    options={[
      { label: "Low", value: "low" },
      { label: "Normal", value: "normal" },
      { label: "High", value: "high" },
    ]}
  />
  <TicketForm.Error name="priority" />
  <TicketForm.Submit>Create ticket</TicketForm.Submit>
</TicketForm>;

Because this replaces the entire native select, render SelectItem components inside the adapter. Do not also render TicketForm.Option children.

shadcn RadioGroup

import { Label } from "@/components/ui/label";
import { RadioGroup, RadioGroupItem } from "@/components/ui/radio-group";
import ozef from "ozef";
import { z } from "zod";

type Frequency = "daily" | "weekly" | "never";

const NotificationForm = ozef({
  schema: z.object({
    frequency: z.enum(["daily", "weekly", "never"]),
  }),
});

function FrequencyField() {
  const frequency = NotificationForm.useField("frequency");

  return (
    <fieldset>
      <legend>Notification frequency</legend>
      <RadioGroup
        name={frequency.name}
        value={frequency.value ?? ""}
        required={frequency.required}
        aria-invalid={frequency.invalid}
        aria-describedby={frequency.error ? "frequency-error" : undefined}
        onValueChange={(value) => {
          frequency.setValue(value as Frequency);
          frequency.touch();
        }}
        onBlur={() => frequency.touch()}
      >
        {[
          ["daily", "Daily"],
          ["weekly", "Weekly"],
          ["never", "Never"],
        ].map(([value, label]) => (
          <div key={value} className="flex items-center gap-2">
            <RadioGroupItem id={`frequency-${value}`} value={value} />
            <Label htmlFor={`frequency-${value}`}>{label}</Label>
          </div>
        ))}
      </RadioGroup>
      {frequency.error ? (
        <p
          id="frequency-error"
          role="alert"
          className="text-sm text-destructive"
        >
          {frequency.error}
        </p>
      ) : null}
    </fieldset>
  );
}

<NotificationForm>
  <FrequencyField />
  <NotificationForm.Submit>Save</NotificationForm.Submit>
</NotificationForm>;

This example renders frequency.error inline. Alternatively, remove that paragraph and use <NotificationForm.Error name="frequency" />.

Native radio and option slots

For native radio items, replace the InputRadio slot and keep using Form.Radio:

import type { ComponentProps } from "react";
import type { OzefInputProps } from "ozef";
import ozef from "ozef";
import { z } from "zod";

type RadioInputProps = OzefInputProps &
  ComponentProps<"input"> & {
    label: string;
  };

function RadioInput({ label, field, inputProps }: RadioInputProps) {
  const { label: _label, ...nativeInputProps } = inputProps ?? {};

  return (
    <label data-invalid={field?.invalid || undefined}>
      <input {...nativeInputProps} />
      {label}
    </label>
  );
}

const SizeForm = ozef({
  schema: z.object({
    size: z.enum(["small", "large"]),
  }),
  InputRadio: RadioInput,
});

<SizeForm.Field name="size">
  <SizeForm.Radio name="size" value="small" label="Small" />
  <SizeForm.Radio name="size" value="large" label="Large" />
</SizeForm.Field>;

The Option slot only applies to native select fields. With shadcn Select, put SelectItem rendering inside your custom Select component instead.

import type { ComponentProps } from "react";
import ozef from "ozef";
import { z } from "zod";

function NativeOption({
  name: _name,
  ...props
}: ComponentProps<"option"> & { name?: string }) {
  return <option {...props} />;
}

const NativeThemeForm = ozef({
  schema: z.object({
    theme: z.union([z.literal("system"), z.literal("dark")]),
  }),
  Option: NativeOption,
});

<NativeThemeForm.Field name="theme">
  <NativeThemeForm.Option name="theme" value="system">
    System
  </NativeThemeForm.Option>
  <NativeThemeForm.Option name="theme" value="dark">
    Dark
  </NativeThemeForm.Option>
</NativeThemeForm.Field>;

Error and submit slots

Use Error and Submit for design-system error text and buttons:

import type { ComponentProps } from "react";
import ozef from "ozef";
import { z } from "zod";
import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button";

function FieldError({
  error,
  ...props
}: ComponentProps<"span"> & { error?: string }) {
  return (
    <span {...props} role="alert" className="text-sm text-destructive">
      {error}
    </span>
  );
}

function SubmitButton({
  submitting,
  children,
  ...props
}: ComponentProps<typeof Button> & { submitting?: boolean }) {
  return (
    <Button {...props} type="submit" disabled={submitting || props.disabled}>
      {submitting ? "Saving..." : children}
    </Button>
  );
}

const AccountForm = ozef({
  schema: z.object({
    email: z.string().email(),
  }),
  Error: FieldError,
  Submit: SubmitButton,
});

<AccountForm.Field name="email" />
<AccountForm.Error name="email" />
<AccountForm.Submit>Save</AccountForm.Submit>;

Legacy metadata props like errorful and radioValue are still passed for existing custom inputs, but new components should prefer field.invalid, field.error, and inputProps.

Hooks

Use Form.useField(name) when composing custom field UI:

function EmailPreview() {
  const email = LoginForm.useField("email");

  return (
    <button type="button" onClick={() => email.setValue("ada@example.com")}>
      Use {email.value || "default email"}
    </button>
  );
}

Use Form.useForm() for form-level controls:

function FormToolbar() {
  const form = LoginForm.useForm();

  return (
    <>
      <button type="button" onClick={form.reset}>
        Reset
      </button>
      <button
        type="button"
        onClick={() => form.setError("email", "Email is already taken")}
      >
        Set server error
      </button>
      {form.submitting ? "Saving..." : null}
    </>
  );
}

Submit Errors

onSubmit receives utility helpers. Use setError for server-side errors:

const AccountForm = ozef({
  schema: z.object({
    email: z.string().email(),
  }),
});

<AccountForm
  onSubmit={async (data, utils) => {
    const result = await createAccount(data);

    if (!result.ok) {
      utils.setError("email", "Email is already taken");
      utils.setError("submission", "Please fix the highlighted fields");
    }
  }}
>
  <AccountForm.Field name="email" />
  <AccountForm.Error name="email" />
  <AccountForm.Error name="submission" />
  <AccountForm.Submit>Create account</AccountForm.Submit>
</AccountForm>;

Render every visible error with:

<AccountForm.Errors />
