Supabase

The open source Firebase alternative

5 comments

About Supabase

Supabase gives every project a full Postgres database with authentication, row level security, file storage, edge functions and realtime subscriptions on top. You get the raw SQL database rather than a proprietary store, so you can leave whenever you want. The whole stack is open source and can be self hosted.

    It is postgres. That is the entire reason to pick it over firebase. You can leave whenever you want.

    Row level security is powerful and also the number one way people ship a leak. Read the docs twice. I have made peace with the settings page.

    no joke, this. i have seen two production apps with rls disabled because someone could not get a policy right.

    Self hosting the full stack is doable but it is a lot of containers. Cloud is worth the money.

    edge functions were rough early on, much better now.
