This is a Convex project created with npm create convex.
After the initial setup (<2 minutes) you'll have a working full-stack app using:
- Convex as your backend (database, server logic)
- React as your frontend (web page interactivity)
- Next.js for optimized web hosting and page routing
- Tailwind for building great looking accessible UI
- Clerk for authentication
If you just cloned this codebase and didn't use npm create convex, run:
npm install
npm run dev
If you're reading this README on GitHub and want to use this template, run:
npm create convex@latest -- -t nextjs-clerk
Then:
- Open your app. There should be a "Claim your application" button from Clerk in the bottom right of your app.
- Follow the steps to claim your application and link it to this app.
- Follow step 3 in the Convex Clerk onboarding guide to create a Convex JWT template.
- Uncomment the Clerk provider in
convex/auth.config.ts - Paste the Issuer URL as
CLERK_JWT_ISSUER_DOMAINto your dev deployment environment variable settings on the Convex dashboard (see docs)
If you want to sync Clerk user data via webhooks, check out this example repo.
