io-ts is a powerful TypeScript library for runtime type checking and validation. It allows you to define complex data structures as TypeScript types and validate input data against these types at runtime. io-ts provides a declarative and composable way to define data schemas and ensure data integrity in your applications.

Compared to other validation libraries like Yup or Joi, io-ts leverages the static type system of TypeScript to provide type-safe runtime validation. It offers a functional programming approach and seamless integration with existing TypeScript codebases, making it a popular choice for ensuring data consistency and correctness.
