What's great
It lets us instantly check logs, test functions, inspect data, and monitor health without leaving our app.
What needs improvement
More bulk operations (bulk edit/delete), import/export, and schema-aware forms for creating new documents. Additional dashboards for per-function performance, correlated traces across logs/health, and more granular alert-style surfacing of recurring errors. Finer-grained control over which views are enabled, per-role access control, and theming that more deeply matches host apps. First-class UI for viewing change history and “who edited what” on documents, built on top of Convex-side audit patterns. Shared saved views/filters, presets for common investigations, and better support for multi-environment workflows (dev/staging/prod) inside a single UI.
vs Alternatives
Because it is built for Convex and lives directly inside our app, giving us instant access to logs, data, function runners, and health metrics without juggling separate dashboards
Is in-place data editing audited and reversible?
In place edits go through your normal Convex mutations, so any auditing or history is as strong as what you implement in your Convex backend.
Is there support for staging and production environments?
It works with whatever Convex environments you already have (dev, staging, production, etc.) by pointing it at the appropriate deployment URL and credentials.
How are errors surfaced and triaged in the panel?
Errors are surfaced in real time through the Logs, Health, and Functions views, with powerful filtering to help you triage quickly.
