Built-in auth with session management. Integrates with Google, Apple, and email login.
End-to-end type safety. Your queries and mutations are fully typed in your app.
The modern backend for React developers.
No servers, no database management, no scaling headaches. Convex handles everything.
Hooks that feel natural in React. useQuery and useMutation just work.
Data changes sync to all clients in milliseconds. Build real-time features effortlessly.
Schema types flow from backend to frontend. Catch errors at compile time.
Write backend functions in TypeScript. Use them directly in your app.
import { v } from "convex/values";
import { mutation, query } from "./_generated/server";
// Query: Get all messages (real-time)
export const list = query({
handler: async (ctx) => {
return await ctx.db.query("messages").order("desc").take(50);
},
});
// Mutation: Send a message
export const send = mutation({
args: { content: v.string() },
handler: async (ctx, args) => {
const user = await ctx.auth.getUserIdentity();
return await ctx.db.insert("messages", {
content: args.content,
author: user?.name ?? "Anonymous",
createdAt: Date.now(),
});
},
});import { useQuery, useMutation } from "convex/react";
import { api } from "@/convex/_generated/api";
export default function ChatScreen() {
// Real-time query - updates automatically!
const messages = useQuery(api.messages.list);
const sendMessage = useMutation(api.messages.send);
return (
<View className="flex-1">
<FlatList
data={messages}
renderItem={({ item }) => <MessageBubble message={item} />}
/>
<MessageInput onSend={(text) => sendMessage({ content: text })} />
</View>
);

Convex is a backend platform that combines a real-time database, serverless functions, and file storage. It's designed for React applications and provides automatic sync, type safety, and zero infrastructure management. VibeFast uses Convex because it dramatically reduces backend complexity while providing enterprise-grade features.
VibeFast is built around Convex, but the frontend code is modular. If you prefer Supabase, Firebase, or your own backend, you can swap the API layer. However, you'll lose some Convex-specific features like automatic real-time sync and the integrated type system.
When data changes in Convex, all connected clients receive updates automatically within milliseconds. You don't need to set up websockets, polling, or push notifications for data sync—it's built into the useQuery hooks. This is perfect for chat, notifications, live dashboards, and collaborative features.
VibeFast includes a complete Convex setup: database schema with user and session tables, auth mutations, file upload utilities, typed API clients for both mobile and web, environment configuration, and examples for webhooks and scheduled functions.
Convex has a generous free tier that covers most hobby and small production apps. Paid plans start when you need more storage, bandwidth, or team features. VibeFast works with any Convex plan—you're not locked into specific pricing.
Convex deployment is simple: run 'npx convex deploy' and your functions are live. VibeFast includes environment templates for staging and production. The backend runs on Convex's infrastructure, so there's no servers to provision or maintain.
