[Draft] Wire initial Next.js app to Convex backend #55

@BASIC-BIT

Description

@BASIC-BIT

Problem

VRDex needs the initial web app and backend to connect through one real runtime path instead of existing as separate scaffolds.

Scope

  • connect the initial Next.js app to the initial Convex backend
  • add the minimum client/provider setup needed for app-to-backend communication
  • expose one simple placeholder read path from the app into Convex
  • confirm the app can render data coming from Convex
  • keep the integration minimal and friendly to later auth, schema, and product work

Non-goals

  • full product schema implementation
  • auth integration
  • billing integration
  • production deployment setup
  • full loading/error-state design system
  • advanced data-fetching patterns beyond the first working path

Acceptance criteria

  • the Next.js app can talk to Convex locally
  • the app includes the minimum provider/client wiring required for that connection
  • at least one placeholder query or read path is rendered in the app successfully
  • the integration leaves room for later domain schema and feature work without forcing premature structure decisions

Likely docs to update

  • README.md
  • docs/planning/engineering-strategy.md
  • docs/README.md
  • any app/backend setup doc created during implementation

Soft dependencies

  • #53 Scaffold initial Next.js web app
  • #54 Bootstrap initial Convex backend

Soft dependents

  • #9 Create base profile schema for people and communities
  • #18 Implement multi-provider account login for v0.5 (Discord, Google, email/password)
  • #19 Build public person profile page
  • #21 Build public community profile page
  • #31 Implement public search across people and communities
