Using zod to get structured and typed output from ChatGPT in TypeScript

In plain words

This is a TypeScript tool that uses Zod, a schema validation library, to extract structured and typed data from ChatGPT responses. Developers can define data schemas and ensure the AI output conforms to specific formats and types automatically. The project provides practical methods for working with large language models while maintaining type safety, making it useful for developers building applications that need reliable, predictable data extraction from ChatGPT.

  A tool to visualise Zod validation errors2024 · zod.fyi · ▲17

  I work on code generator that creates TypeScript SDKs from OpenAPI specs and Zod (https://zod.dev/) is a critical building block that I chose to power runtime validation in those SDKs. Depending on the complexity of a Zod schema, the resulting validation error message can contain a wall of JSON text - the serialised issues that were recorded during validation. I wanted to try and create a small tool to help me better visualise and parse these errors. In code and the command line, we do also have the ability to pretty-print the errors but I still wanted a web UI which can let…

  Talanoa▲346

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  GPT-4-powered web searches for developers▲1,401

  Hi HN, Today we’re launching GPT-4 answers on Phind.com, a developer-focused search engine that uses generative AI to browse the web and answer technical questions, complete with code examples and detailed explanations. Unlike vanilla GPT-4, Phind feeds in relevant websites and technical documentation, reducing the model’s hallucination and keeping it up-to-date. To use it, simply enable the “Expert” toggle before doing a search. GPT-4 is making a night-and-day difference in terms of answer quality. For a question like “How can I RLHF a LLaMa model”, Phind in Expert mode delivers a…
