useFieldContext
I have created a InputField component, but I need to extend the label for an input which tells me if a input is optional. Is there a way I can check whether or not a field is optional based on field.state (or something like that)?. I use zod as a validation schema.

you would need access to meta properties of the schema, which standard schema v1 does not expose. Perhaps this changes in a future spec, but for now, you‘ll need to manually pass the required info

I cannot see a "isRequired" like property in the meta properties. Do I need to create my own for now?

hmmm … I remember seeing some „nullable“ prop in the zod schema‘s shape
perhaps required doesn‘t exist, but nonnullable and nonoptional can be checked for

The suggestion from the deprecation-message seems interesting.
if that works you could put that into a helper function to make the intend clearer

Thanks! That's a good approach. The only "problem" with this approach is that I cannot infere this in the global field-components. Would be nice to apply it directly InputField. Maybe I can get the schema from form store or something... hmm

sort of. You can, but not in a type safe way.
field.form is the form calling the field component, and the form contains options which includes validators that were passed to it
but you then need to extract your field-specific shape if the validator exists
