Description

I tried to solve this issue https://github.com/Effect-TS/effect/issues/3986

import { Schema } from 'effect'

const fdSchema = S.FormData(S.Struct({
    num: S.NumberFromString
}))

the interesting part was that when encoding, information about an empty array is lost - I solved this using ast-based parsing - I'm not sure if this is the right or complete solution

cc @gcanti specifically for input here

@gcanti do you have any thoughts on this? it seems there is a request for this schema from the community, so I thought it would make sense to land it in effect

[gcanti]

I think a good starting point would be to write a detailed proposal in the linked issue (as suggested by its label). It's unclear to me which use cases are being addressed, which array formats will be supported (dot notation? bracket notation? both? neither?), and why this should be a concern for Schema (I don't dismiss it, but it would be helpful to have evidence for this). For instance, for the sake of discussion, why not simply use something like https://github.com/fabian-hiller/decode-formdata and validate its output instead?
