Convex Development

Best practices for robust, secure, performant, cost-effective Convex backends.

Core Principle

Deep modules via the convex/model/ pattern. Most logic should be plain TypeScript; query/mutation wrappers should be thin.

convex/
  _generated/         # MUST commit to git!
  model/              # Business logic (testable, reusable)
  users.ts            # Public API (thin wrappers)
  schema.ts
