- SOLID Principles: Single responsibility, dependency injection
- Error Boundaries: Graceful error handling and recovery
- Optimistic Updates: Immediate UI feedback with server reconciliation
- Atomic Operations: Race condition prevention using Convex's built-in atomicity
# Development
npm run dev # Start development server
npm run build # Build for production
npm run preview # Preview production build
npm run lint # Run ESLint
# Convex
npx convex dev # Start Convex development backend
npx convex deploy # Deploy to production- Open multiple browser tabs/windows
- Rapidly click increment/decrement across all tabs
- Observe perfect consistency - no lost updates or race conditions
The counter uses Convex's built-in atomic operations to prevent race conditions:
// Atomic increment with automatic retries
export const increment = mutation({
handler: async (ctx): Promise<number> => {
const counter = await ctx.db.query("counters").first();
const newValue = (counter?.value ?? 0) + 1;
await ctx.db.patch(counter._id, { value: newValue });
return newValue;
},
});Changes are automatically synchronized across all connected clients using Convex's reactive queries.
Comprehensive error handling with retry logic and user-friendly messages.
