A better type of backend
Convex is a full-stack TypeScript development platform that keeps you focused on your product. Use our realtime database to build apps that are reactive by default. Integrate OpenAI into your workflows with builtin functions, scheduling, and vector search.
Hey everyone! I'm Jamie, one of the creators of Convex. Before Convex, the founders built and ran custom database and storage systems with petabytes of data, millions of requests per second, and billions of users. We managed backend platforms that desperately tried to keep up with the needs of thousands of frontend engineers. What we learned is that traditional databases and backend engineering just aren't good enough anymore. There's just too much time spent on stuff that has nothing to do with
Congratulations on the PH launch! Had a pleasure of trying Convex out before and I'm really impressed with the product and the team behind it.
I've been using Convex on a personal passion project for about a month now and it's just been a dream. The developer experience is fantastic and the APIs are a true joy to learn and use. I think you've nailed the convention over configuration paradigm—I can't remember being this excited for a platform since my Rails days. Well done and many thanks!
I've been using convex for a lot of side projects, and honestly I'm not sure if I even want to go back to original workflow of developing applications. The ease of creating backend functions and hooking them into my frontend (all typesafe I should add) has been game changing. To top it all off, half of the boiler plate code in the frontend goes away since you'll receive websocket events when your convex data changes and your state automatically updates. They have great integrations with 3rd part
its great.Congratulations on the launch!
Categories come from the product's launch tags. Most products appear in 2-3 categories. The primary category is listed first.
The scores reflect launch-period engagement. Historical data is preserved and doesn't change retroactively. The build date at the bottom shows when the index was last refreshed.
