• Summary:
  Convex is the open-source reactive database designed to make life easy for web app developers, whether human or LLM. Fetch data and perform business logic with strong consistency by writing pure TypeScript.
• Notes:
  -- Convex provides a database, a place to write your server functions, and client libraries. It makes it easy to build and scale dynamic live-updating apps.
  -- Good documentation: https://docs.convex.dev/home
  -- Active community: https://discord.com/invite/convex
  -- Well funded and trusted company behind it: https://news.convex.dev/convex-raises-24m/
  -- Very good for AI Apps because of configuration as code. Also Chef is cool: https://news.convex.dev/open-kitchen-chef-is-now-oss/
  -- Would be good boost for Cloudron I think.
  -- I want it, but can't spend time (yet) to figure out how to do it myself.
