Notification System Design Advice
I'm developing a notification system for a prelaunch startup and would like some advice on how to implement this using Convex. After some research, I've noticed that most companies have a complex microservice architecture for this task. They implement many different types of notifications (SMS, Push, Email, etc.) using event-driven architecture. Popular technologies such as Apache Kafka and RabbitMQ are used for message events.
I have attached a diagram of my system design draft v1 for direct messages using email notifications. My goal is to make a notification system that relies on outside services as little as possible and utilizes Convex to the fullest. I'm also thinking of expanding this system and supporting multiple different types of notifications as the needs of the product grow.
If you have any advice that would be greatly appreciated....
VSCode keeps showing an error on functional Convex API Call
Hi! My issue is that in my Convex database, I have a table called submissions.ts and the table name in the schema.ts file is also submissions. Thus, when using the API call, I also use api.submissions, which is correct, but VSCode keeps wanting me to switch to api.submission, which is wrong (and if I change to it, the code stops working, which makes sense).
How should I address this issue? Is there anything in particular I'm doing wrong with the IDE that is making this an issue? Thank you!...

Clerk auth v6 integration with Convex provider in Nextjs
So v6 of clerk is out and it gives us the ability to wrap individual components with the clerk provider and pass the dynamic prop to get server side auth.
Currently the convex provider requires us to wrap the entire root and wrap that in a dynamic clerk provider causing all pages to be dynamic and rerender on each request…
Is there any plans to change how the convex provider works with clerk?
It would be nice to take advantage of nextjs ppr and other static rendering methods of pages that don’t require server side auth....
