ZNormalization and SQL-like strategies
second/last question for the evening --
as someone who is coming from firebase and with no sql experience, im trying to determine the best way to approach the typed schema design for convex. Should i approach convex solely with typed schemas in mind, which i assume would allow me to safely and efficiently model my data with firebase paradigms in mind (collections, docs, object-oriented) or should i adopt certain principles and processes like normalization as you see in sql?
Thanks in advance!
EDIT:
Okay, just read:
• https://stack.convex.dev/convex-vs-relational-databases
• https://stack.convex.dev/convex-vs-firebase
I'll just say...things that are too good to be true makes me nervous..lol
Would still love to hear thoughts/insights into this
