Custom Validators and Field Errors

Write rules and surface messages to users.

Beyond Built-Ins

Built-in validators cover the basics, but real apps have unique rules. Now you will write custom validators and surface clear errors. ✍️

Recall the Standard Set

from wtforms.validators import DataRequired, Length, Email
