Why Supabase?
Supabase has had a breakthrough last couple of years in SAAS products usage. It is the new Firebase but better.
We went with Supabase because it makes backend and database development a breeze.
It is realtime first, open source and built on top of Postgres. It provides a powerful dashboard, with many many features. Some include
- Easy to use Javascript and Node.js clients. They also have Flutter, Swift and Dart clients to easily built mobile apps later.
- Realtime with just a checkbox. All your database tables can be made realtime with just a click of a button.
- Database hooks - Allows you to integrate with Zapier, Make etc and connect your app to other apps
- Edge functions
- Database triggers and functions
- Admin Panel
- Custom reports and Graphs
- Errors dashboard
- Foreign Table Wrappers (In development) and so many more.
If you want to build robust webapps quickly, Supabase is the way to go in 2023.
