About
Convex is a backend platform for building applications in TypeScript. It combines a reactive database, file storage, text search, vector search, auth, crons, webhooks, and Node.js actions in a single developer workflow. Backend code lives alongside application code and is typechecked, autocompleted, and used with generated APIs.
