To build a React UI with Convex subscriptions, you use real-time data subscriptions that automatically reflect database changes. This Skill provides patterns for automatic subscriptions, smart caching, and consistency guarantees to keep live lists updated across multiple components.

The best way to implement optimistic updates with Convex is using patterns that provide immediate UI feedback with automatic rollback capabilities. This ensures your interface remains snappy while maintaining data consistency if the server mutation fails.

You handle real-time pagination using Convex by implementing cursor-based pagination combined with intelligent caching. This approach ensures scalable list updates and efficient data fetching across multiple React components.

Yes, Convex real-time subscriptions include consistency guarantees to ensure data remains synchronized across multiple React components. The system manages automatic subscriptions and smart caching to maintain UI consistency during live database changes.

You need real-time subscriptions when your React frontend requires live lists, optimistic updates, and paginated data that automatically reflect database changes. This is essential for reactive apps needing instant data synchronization without manual polling.

If your Convex real-time list is not updating automatically, you may be missing the proper subscription patterns for smart caching and consistency guarantees. This Skill provides the necessary automatic subscription setup to ensure UIs correctly reflect database changes.
