Why Convex Queries are the Ultimate Form of Derived State

After years of wrestling with state management, I’ve found myself excited by how Convex queries have simplified the way I think about derived state. Instead of juggling complex state libraries and websocket implementations, Convex offers a refreshingly straightforward approach: just declare what data you need, and it stays synchronized across all clients automatically. It’s made me wonder if we’ve been overcomplicating things all along.
