I was wondering if there was some further work on the
withUser example from ~6 months ago. Thanks for passing this along.yep, he's made a convex-helpers repo here with a bunch of examples about how to compose pieces together to achieve authz type flows: https://github.com/get-convex/convex-helpers/blob/main/convex/customFunctionExample.ts

A collection of useful code to complement the official packages. - get-convex/convex-helpers
in addition, if you want to try something even higher level, @Michal Srb has created a Prisma-like abstraction here: https://labs.convex.dev/convex-ents (based on an object modeling approach used at Meta)

I need a weekly/monthly convex digest email to keep on top of these advancements! Too heads down in my own ish. I find myself 3 (minor) versions behind on the core libs every time i come up for air.
I'll look at that as well, but havent explored prisma yet, so I might need to get caught up on some underlying concepts first.
Let me know if you want to chat more about it - I have the customFunction stuff and I'm thinking about a
customSchema which would allow tables to have defaults, auto-incrementing fields, etc. So long as you used it in concert with custom functions and the generated DB wrappersCustomizing serverless functions without middleware
