## Install

```bash
$ npm install @sinclair/typebox-remix --save
```

## Example

TypeBox Remix converts Valibot and Zod Types into TypeBox compatible schematics

```typescript
import { Box } from '@sinclair/typebox-remix'

import * as v from 'valibot'
import * as z from 'zod'

// Valibot to TypeBox (Runtime)

const V = Box(v.object({                            // const V = {
  x: v.number(),                                    //   type: 'object',
  y: v.number(),                                    //   required: ['x', 'y', 'z'],
  z: v.number()                                     //   properties: {
}))                                                 //     x: { type: 'number' },
                                                    //     y: { type: 'number' },
                                                    //     z: { type: 'number' }
                                                    //   }
                                                    // }

// Zod to TypeBox (Static)

const Z = Box(z.object({                            // const Z: TObject<{
  a: z.string(),                                    //   a: TString,
  b: z.string(),                                    //   b: TString,
  c: z.string()                                     //   c: TString
}))                                                 // }>
```

## Overview

TypeBox Remix is a library that makes Zod and Valibot compatible with TypeBox. It works by structurally remapping the types provided by these libraries into Json Schema schematics, enabling them to integrate with the TypeBox infrastructure and making them compatible with Ajv.

This library can be used to integrate Valibot and Zod into server infrastructures that standardize on the Json Schema specification. By transforming these libraries to Json Schema, they can benefit from accelerated type checking and achieve better interoperability with non-JavaScript based systems.

## Usage

TypeBox Remix provides a singular Box function to transform Valibot and Zod types into TypeBox schematics. The top-level export is capable of transforming both Valibot and Zod, but you should use the appropriate submodule depending on which library you are using.

### Valibot

Use the `/valibot` submodule if you only have Valibot installed.

```typescript
import { Box } from '@sinclair/typebox-remix/valibot' // Transform Valibot Only

import * as v from 'valibot'

const T = Box(v.string())                             // const T = { type: 'string' }
```

Refer to the Valibot [documentation](https://valibot.dev/) for more information on this type library.

### Zod

Use the `/zod` submodule if you only have Zod installed.

```typescript
import { Box } from '@sinclair/typebox-remix/zod'     // Transform Zod Only

import * as z from 'zod'

const T = Box(z.string())                             // const T = { type: 'string' }
```

Refer to the Zod [documentation](https://zod.dev/) for more information on this type library.



## Benchmark

This project manages a benchmark that runs type check performance using Zod, Valibot and TypeBox validators. The benchmark is setup to run 1 million check operations per library and validator pairing and reports the elapsed time taken to complete.

### Type

```typescript
const T = { x: number, y: number, z: number }
```

### Results
