Reviewer scorecard
“Real-time reactivity without WebSocket boilerplate. Server functions co-located with schema definition is elegant.”
“Open source with a self-hostable option. Remote config + feature flags in one tool reduces tool sprawl.”
“The DX is genuinely excellent. If your app needs real-time, Convex eliminates an enormous amount of complexity.”
“Solid open-source feature flag platform. The edge proxy for sub-millisecond evaluation is a nice touch.”
“Reactive backends that push data to clients will become the default. Convex is building that future now.”
“The feature flag market is crowded. Flagsmith is good but differentiation is minimal against Unleash and others.”
