speed of development

Played more with firebase and Convex today. One observation: convex actions deployment is instant compare to couple minutes of firebase (gcp) cloud functions. This is so cool. Very fast debugging cycle. Nice job.

Yeah, the little things for keeping development as fast as possible matter. In order to speed up development and reduce confusion (like running old versions of the code), we always execute the latest version of the code immediately at slight latency penalty by dynamically downloading the source at the execution environment if needed. Then we bundle and deploy the source asynchronously so you get the fastest possible end user performance. You get the best of both worlds - development speed and end user performance.
