## Overview

zelvar-validate is a zero-dependency validation library. Consumers provide values and rules, then receive validity and error results through chainable, schema, conditional, async, nested, or batch APIs. The graph shows the main implementation calls and rule evaluations. README capabilities not fully visible in sampled source are represented only where the tree supports a module; the README excerpt ends before its remaining examples.

Main entry points: [`src/index.ts`](https://github.com/zelvarys/zelvar-validate/blob/main/src/index.ts) (Main Exports), [`src/browser.ts`](https://github.com/zelvarys/zelvar-validate/blob/main/src/browser.ts) (Browser Exports), [`src/validator.ts`](https://github.com/zelvarys/zelvar-validate/blob/main/src/validator.ts) (Chainable Validator), [`src/schema.ts`](https://github.com/zelvarys/zelvar-validate/blob/main/src/schema.ts) (Object Schemas)
