Are `Match` and `check` here to stay? Is a new alternative in the works?

check and Match do what they are supposed to do.
SimpleSchema doesn’t do it better that it would justify spending the time to rewrite code for SimpleSchema.
This already is enough of a reason. Aside of that, SimpleSchema’s list of bugs and issues doesn’t really add much confidence

Check and Match will always work the way they do now. If you want to keep using them, you can.

I guess @raycone is right to ask this question becasuse this whole thread started off to question a potential deprecation of check/match.

So I think, if “keep using them, you can” is a definitive “no it won’t go away” the thread will have concluded :smile:

PS: I think I’m to blame for the existence of this topic anyway since I mentioned on another thread that there were some “discussion” revolving around check/match being redundant now that SS is endorsed.

Yeah I guess I’m never really sure what “deprecated” means for a library that’s just a few hundred lines of JS code. Like we aren’t going to intentionally break it, but might just direct new feature development in a different direction.
