Arktype pros and cons
Hey, we all know how great arktype is, currently I'm about to convince my CTO to use arktype for new projects, is there any indefeasible points for Arktype to win the debate apart from what already found on the web? 😂

Hi @TaQuanMinhLong, I'm not sure if they have a comparison page available, but you can check out their features on the homepage here: https://arktype.io/. But I think you should consider it because ArkType is a new and evolving project, and many people may not know about it yet. And personally, I also find the learning curve steeper compared to Zod or Yup.

@TaQuanMinhLong I would say the homepage is the best overall summary.
Maybe highlight that the modern TS ecosystem has already largely adopted https://standardschema.dev/ so there shouldn't be compatibility issues?
@teddythinh I actually don't think ArkType has much of a learning curve as long as you use TypeScript as your frame of reference instead of Zod. It's still evolving in that we're shipping new features, but the 2.0 release is stable so it's not particularly risky in terms of adoption form that perspective.
