SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires convex, convex/react, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps developers build reactive applications with real-time subscriptions, optimistic updates, intelligent caching, and cursor-based pagination, simplifying the creation of dynamic user interfaces.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Real-time Subscriptions: Automatically update components when data changes.
  • Optimistic Updates: Display changes immediately before server confirmation for better performance.
  • Smart Caching: Cache query results and share them across components.
  • Cursor-based Pagination: Efficiently load and display large datasets with cursor-based pagination.
  • Use Case: Use this Skill to create a real-time chat application that loads messages as the user scrolls, ensuring a smooth and responsive user experience.

Quick Start

Start by setting up a Convex Realtime query and use the useQuery hook to automatically subscribe to updates.

Frequently Asked Questions about convex-realtime

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I implement real-time subscriptions in a reactive application?▼

Real-time subscriptions automatically update components when data changes. You can implement them by setting up a Convex realtime query and using the useQuery hook to automatically subscribe to updates.

What's the best way to handle optimistic updates for better UI performance?▼

Optimistic updates display changes immediately before server confirmation. This approach provides better performance by showing UI updates instantly while the server processes the request in the background.

How does cursor-based pagination work for loading large datasets efficiently?▼

Cursor-based pagination efficiently loads and displays large datasets by using cursors to track position. This method ensures smooth data fetching, making it ideal for applications like real-time chat that load messages as the user scrolls.

Do I need Convex to build reactive apps with real-time subscriptions?▼

Yes, you need Convex and related libraries like convex/react for real-time data handling and optimistic updates. These dependencies provide the foundational hooks required for reactive application functionality.

Can I use smart caching to share query results across multiple components?▼

Smart caching caches query results and shares them across components. This reduces redundant data fetching and ensures consistent state throughout your reactive application interface.
