Global State Management with James Cowling

Convex makes storing your application’s data as easy as using React state management. If you can use React hooks, you can also manage your backend data using Convex. James Cowling is a former Dropbox infrastructure engineer turned startup founder. James joins the show to discuss how Convex offers a simpler full-stack developer experience than the tools developers use today — without many of the compromises of other alternatives. This episode is guest hosted by Jackson Gabbard, a long-time Facebook product engineer who is now the CTO of Cord — the SDK for collaboration in any SaaS tool.
