Questions & Answers
Convex is code-first — you write your database schema, queries, and mutations entirely in TypeScript alongside your app code. Unlike Supabase (SQL-based) or Firebase (config-based rules), Convex gives you full programmatic control of your backend with automatic real-time reactivity and end-to-end type safety.
