Small newbie docs feedback I d add a
Small newbie docs feedback. I'd add a "Action functions" subsection to https://docs.convex.dev/tutorial/how-it-works. For some reason I thought functions meant queries/mutations only and were different than actions. This was confusing me when reading about scheduling functions.

If you see other docs that are confusing or could use tweaks, let us know!
