Supabase enters this space with a radically different philosophy: transparency. It provides the convenience of a BaaS, but it’s built on the world’s most trusted relational database: PostgreSQL. The “magic” isn’t a proprietary black box; it’s a carefully assembled suite of open-source tools that enhance Postgres, not hide it."><meta property="og:url" content="/posts/supabase-deep-dive/"><meta property="og:site_name" content="Eric X.
