Key Patterns

• All backend code lives in convex/ directory
• Use v. validators for all args and returns
• Queries are reactive and cached
• Mutations are transactional
• Actions for external API calls (not reactive)
• Always define indexes for filtered queries
• Use Id<"tableName"> for document references

With Nuxt/Vue
