Supabase is an open-source backend-as-a-service that provides real-time databases, authentication, and API services. It enables developers to build and scale applications quickly without managing server infrastructure.
Game-changing for us as an early-stage startup. Their PostgreSQL backend with real-time capabilities gave us enterprise-grade infrastructure without the enterprise overhead. The auth system and auto-generated APIs meant we could focus on building core features instead of reinventing wheels.
Perfect developer experience with excellent documentation; it's a serious alternative to Firebase. I use Supabase for personal projects and so far, I have no complaints!
