Pull Request Overview

This PR adds a planning document for implementing client-side validation on the contact form, outlining a three-phase approach and an estimated timeline.

  • Introduces a new CLIENT_SIDE_VALIDATION_PLAN.md with an overview, phased implementation steps, key features, technical approach, and timeline.
  • Defines core infrastructure, UX enhancements, and testing/accessibility phases.
  • Provides a 4–7 hour estimate for completion.


### Phase 1: Core Validation Infrastructure
1. **Shared validation schema** - Extract Zod schema from `actions.ts` to shared location
2. **Form state management** - Integrate React Hook Form for better form handling
