Convex Best Practices

waynesutton/convexskills

If you're building on Convex, this consolidates the patterns you should be following anyway: proper argument and return validators, indexed queries instead of filters, ConvexError for user-facing failures, and idempotent mutations to avoid write conflicts. It includes the eslint plugin setup and points you to the actual docs before implementing. The Zen of Convex section is a good reminder that you're building on a reactive backend, not a REST API. Most valuable for teams who need consistent patterns across their codebase or solo developers who want to skip the trial and error phase. The CRUD examples show complete implementations, not just fragments.
