A Zod schema that validates primitive JavaScript values.
This schema validates any of the seven primitive data types in JavaScript: string, number, boolean, bigint, symbol, null, and undefined. Primitive values are immutable and are passed by value rather than by reference, distinguishing them from objects and functions which are non-primitive reference types.
