Design a multi-step wizard form pattern in React
WHAT IT TESTS: shared state, step validation, and resilient navigation. A great answer uses one form instance with per-step Zod schemas, a context stepper, and localStorage persistence. Red flag: isolated forms per step that lose data on navigation.
WHAT IT TESTS: your ability to architect decoupled state, validation, and UX resilience across a non-linear flow. A strong answer outlines a single React Hook Form instance at the wizard root with per-step Zod schema slices, a custom context providing step index and navigation guards, and localStorage persistence to prevent data loss. Red flag: treating each step as an isolated component with local useState and no shared validation orchestration, which breaks back-navigation and final submission.
