Supabase

A Postgres backend with auth, storage and APIs

What it is

Supabase gives every project its own Postgres database and generates REST and GraphQL APIs from it automatically. On top come sign-in with over 20 providers and Row Level Security, S3-compatible file storage, Edge Functions in TypeScript, realtime updates over WebSockets and vector search with pgvector. All core pieces are open source and can be self-hosted as well.

Install
npm install supabase --save-dev
Why it made the cut
  • A dedicated Postgres database with an automatic REST API
  • Auth, storage, Edge Functions and Realtime included
  • Under Apache-2.0 and self-hostable
