SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Convex Component Authoring provides a structured approach to building, organizing, and publishing self-contained Convex components that are isolated from application code, easy to reuse, and simple to version.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Self-contained components with isolated schemas, functions, and optional frontend hooks
  • Clear exports and dependency management to share across projects
  • Use cases include distributing UI/data-layer modules to multiple Convex apps

Quick Start

Create a new convex component project with the standard layout and run the publish workflow to share it across apps.

FAQPage Schema
How do I publish isolated, reusable Convex components for multiple projects?

To publish isolated Convex components, you build self-contained modules with independent schemas and functions, then run the standard publish workflow to distribute the UI and data-layer modules across multiple apps.

What is component isolation in Convex and why is it needed?

Component isolation in Convex separates schemas, functions, and frontend hooks from the main application code. This structured approach ensures reusable logic and data models remain self-contained, simple to version, and easy to share across projects.

How do I share data models and schemas across multiple Convex apps?

You share data models and schemas by authoring self-contained Convex components with clear exports and dependency management. This allows modular components with independent schemas to be deployed and consumed across multiple projects.

Does the convex-component-authoring workflow support frontend hooks?

Yes, the Convex component authoring workflow supports optional frontend hooks. You can build self-contained components that include isolated schemas, functions, and these hooks to distribute complete UI and data-layer modules.

What's the best way to manage dependencies for reusable Convex components?

The best way to manage dependencies for reusable Convex components is using a structured authoring approach with clear exports. This ensures self-contained modules remain isolated from application code while being easy to reuse and version.

Can I distribute UI and data-layer modules to multiple Convex apps?

Yes, you can distribute UI and data-layer modules to multiple Convex apps by building self-contained components. These isolated modules feature independent schemas, functions, and optional frontend hooks for cross-project consumption.
