When web developers build forms in any Internet application, it is a must to apply validation. Validating forms is a crucial process in any application development process because it helps to prevent security threats or junk data in your database. Applying validations on the server-side can be performed conveniently through a framework or developer tools used in the backend. On the front-end, however, it is sometimes painful for developers to validate forms as it involves lots of effort.
