thanks to convex's simple
ConvexClient we shipped recently, and solidjs's clean abstractions, takes less than 50 LOC to hook up queries/mutations/and actions in solidjs: https://github.com/jamwt/solid-convex/blob/main/src/cvxsolid.tsGitHub

anyway, check it out if you're curious to try solid with convex! react is amazing, but it's always great to play around with the alternatives 😄
Def checking this out! That’s cool! I’m also looking into trying a setup using pretty bare bones react project, with @tanstack/react-router, I’m thinking it could be cool to see what mixing that with convex does.
Hey @oscklm, did you by any change figured out to use convex subscriptions inside @tanstack/react-router
loader ?
I was going to use @tanstack/react-router along w/ convex and useage of loaders would be amazing tbh, and would love to hear about your experience 😀Ah @Jamie you are the best! I was just wondering if anyone had tried this as I have been a fan for a long time too ❤️
I wonder how this would work with SolidStart
Im actually not a massive fan of these SSR libs (like NextJS), I just feel it adds so much more complexity.. thoughts?
Also I feel like convex works best on the client rather than server, when we can take advantage of the live updates
For every subsequent load, you definitely want convex on the client for the realtime updates. For the FIRST load, it may be helpful to query some data first and then server-side render it into the page for first load.
I think the goal is to use BOTH in concert to achieve the optimal UX. Literally just play around with different strategies until load time feels impeccable.
