FAQPage Schema
How do I set up a new Convex project from scratch?

To set up a new Convex project, scaffold templates using npm create convex@latest, wire the ConvexProvider into your app, configure the deployment URL, and run npx convex dev to start the development loop.

Can I add Convex to an existing React or Next.js app?

Yes, you can add Convex to existing apps across React, Next.js, Vue, and Svelte by installing the convex package, wiring the ConvexProvider, and configuring your deployment URL to connect the frontend.

What is the ConvexProvider and why do I need it for my frontend?

The ConvexProvider is a component you wire into your application to connect your frontend to the Convex backend, enabling real-time data synchronization and deployment configuration.

What's the best way to verify my Convex setup is working correctly?

The best way to verify your Convex setup is by running the npx convex dev command, which starts the development loop and confirms your deployment URL and provider wiring are correctly configured.

Does Convex scaffolding work with Vue and Svelte frameworks?

Yes, Convex scaffolding works with Vue and Svelte, allowing you to integrate the backend provider and configure deployment URLs across multiple frontend frameworks beyond React and Next.js.

Do I need to manually configure deployment URLs when scaffolding a Convex app?

No, the setup automates deployment URL configuration when scaffolding templates, ensuring your ConvexProvider connects to the correct backend environment during the npx convex dev loop.
