About

This skill enables building real-time backend applications with Convex using TypeScript queries, mutations, and actions that feature automatic reactivity and optimistic updates. It's ideal for creating collaborative apps, implementing reactive data synchronization, and writing serverless functions with transactional guarantees. Use it when you need instant data sync, file storage, authentication, or auto-updating queries in your applications.

Core Concepts

Queries (Read Data)

```typescript import { query } from './_generated/server'; import { v } from 'convex/values';

export const list = query({ args: {}, handler: async (ctx) => { return await ctx.db.query('users').collect(); } });

export const get = query({ args: { id: v.id('users') }, handler: async (ctx, args) => { return await ctx.db.get(args.id); } }); ```

Mutations (Write Data)

```typescript import { mutation } from './_generated/server';

export const create = mutation({ args: { name: v.string(), email: v.string() }, handler: async (ctx, args) => { return await ctx.db.insert('users', args); } }); ```
