Narrowing function return type
Hi, consider the toy example below: passing
true as an argument causes the function to return a number while passing false causes it to return a boolean. The inferred return type is however always number | boolean regardless of what argument is passed.
I guess this is just a quirk with TS not narrowing function signature based on arguments passed. Is it possible to achieve this however in an elegant way? 🙂

Data center locations
I'm interested in using convex for an upcoming project, I am just curious:
1. Are there servers in my country (South Africa)?
- If not, where is the closest data center?
2. Do I need to specify which data center to use? Or does convex do that automatically?...

Type instantiation is excessively deep and possibly infinite.
I’m encountering the following TypeScript error in my project:
Type instantiation is excessively deep and possibly infinite
I’m new to TypeScript and don’t have much experience with its type system. My project has a complex directory structure with multiple levels of nesting, and I suspect the deeply nested structure might be causing the issue.

Set environment variables in an action
I wanted to ask if it’s possible to modify environment variables from actions or cron jobs in Convex? If this is not currently supported, are there alternative approaches to dynamically update and store configuration values at runtime, such as using a dedicated key-value store or similar mechanisms?
Looking forward to your response.
Thanks in advance and best regards,...

Issue with uploadstuff Package Breaking Builds on Convex and Vercel
Hello,
I'm running into an issue with the uploadstuff package that's causing apps using it with Convex to break, especially after upgrading to React 19 with the compiler. This is also blocking my project from building and deploying on Vercel.
I've already submitted a pull request with a fix, but I was wondering if there's any chance for the package to be updated soon to resolve this issue....

Convex in Release Build (React Native)
I am moving from a local build (in an iOS simulator) to a release build (on my iPhone) of my app. I am using Convex as my backend. I am noticing that none of the database or API functions are firing as expected.
Are there additional setup steps required? Do I need to follow the production deployment steps for this testing phase?
Thanks!...
