Hey, Convex team, can you tell me the history of the logo used for convex?

I think the convex website has a webpage on brand and logo explanation. Even a breakdown of the font choice. Cool to see for a fan of convex

Convex Brand Guidelines
Convex caters to two planes: its customers, and the people on the other side of the apps built by those customers.

Not too long ago I stumbled across and idea to build a specific web app, but I needed a backend that could handle auth and database. Firebase was my first option, but it's buggy feel wasn't for me. Then I saw supabase, nice but too complicated, appwrite is nosql, which is fine but auth is not the best. Convex seems to be very good at everything with an amazing team.

I’m glad to hear it. Many have a similar journey. Mine also took a detour into straight postgres. Convex will soon be famous enough to start at the top of the funnel. But it’s proving itself through sheer competence

there's another subtle nod to "sync", as convex is sort of the convergence of request/response -> "sync" methodologies for applications in general
