# Convex Backend

Use Convex to build type-safe backend logic with realtime data sync.

## Quick Start

```bash
npm install convex
npx convex dev
npx convex deploy
```

## Implementation Tips

- Define schema and validation before writing functions.
- Keep mutations idempotent where possible.
- Use auth identity checks in every privileged query/mutation.
- Add indexing early for high-read collections.
