Aiden - AI Interview Coach built with Convex!

Hey guys, Aiden is an AI-powered interview coach which I have just launched. It's my first backend-enabled React Native (Expo) app and I'm so glad I chose Convex to build it. You can download it now on the Apple App Store: https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/aiden-ai-interview-coach/id6736410705 How it works: - Import any job (via Linkedin or manually) - Aiden will generate a mock interview bespoke to the role you're applying for - You answer each question with your voice - Aiden will provide you with detailed feedback on your answer and also suggest ways you can improve it :convexspin: Why I chose Convex for the backend: - Seamless realtime updates (ESSENTIAL for AI apps) - Typescript full stack - Fully-featured with scheduled functions, cron jobs, auth, server actions Convex's realtime nature took all of the headache out of the response times for AI-generated content. The experience so natural and fluid, and would have been much harder to implement by polling a backend. I also used the brilliant convex-helpers library to handle query caching. Hopefully this inspires some people to use Convex for their RN apps. Any feedback for me would be much appreciated.

Query type definition does not include all possible return scenarios

My query function is not returning all the possible values as a type definition (i.e. fullReportWithUser below), is this something I need to manually add with manual types or am I doing something wrong?

export const getReport = query({
  args: { reportId: v.id("reports") },
  handler: async (ctx, { reportId }) => {
    const user = await currentUser(ctx, {})
    const fullReport = await ctx.db.get(reportId)
    if (!fullReport) return null
    const { cost, recordingUrl, ...report } = fullReport
    if (user?.admin) {
      if (fullReport.userId) {
        const reportUser = await ctx.db.get(fullReport.userId)
        const fullReportWithUser = { ...fullReport, reportUser }
        return fullReportWithUser
      } else {
        return fullReport
      }
    } else {
      return report
    }
  },
})

export const getReport = query({
  args: { reportId: v.id("reports") },
  handler: async (ctx, { reportId }) => {
    const user = await currentUser(ctx, {})
    const fullReport = await ctx.db.get(reportId)
    if (!fullReport) return null
    const { cost, recordingUrl, ...report } = fullReport
    if (user?.admin) {
      if (fullReport.userId) {
        const reportUser = await ctx.db.get(fullReport.userId)
        const fullReportWithUser = { ...fullReport, reportUser }
        return fullReportWithUser
      } else {
        return fullReport
      }
    } else {
      return report
    }
  },
})

Thanks
