This framework provides all the tools you need to take advantage of these two critical steps, which will support you while exposing straightforward API interfaces and enable your clients to consume them.

You will learn how to use and configure Fastify’s components in order to control and adapt the default setup to your application logic.

This is the learning path we will cover in this chapter:

• Understanding validation and serialization
• Understanding the validation process
• Customizing the validator ...
