App backend
Supabase
Supabase gives us a real Postgres database with auth, storage, and realtime on top — the speed of a backend-as-a-service without leaving SQL behind.
What it is
Supabase is an open-source backend platform built around PostgreSQL, adding authentication, file storage, instant APIs, and realtime subscriptions. You keep full SQL and a relational core.
Why we use it
It is the quick path to a backend that doesn’t box us in: real Postgres underneath, so the data model stays sound and a product can grow into custom infrastructure later if it needs to.
Where we put it to work

not the slide.
