Supabase From Scratch: Serverless Database Backend with JS
Supabase From Scratch: Serverless Database Backend with JS
Concise tutorial on using REST API, Javascript and React for serverless database and authentication using Supabase
Do you want to focus on frontend and on providing the best possible experience for your clients without having to worry about the backend database management and authentication systems? If so, “no-backend” and serverless are what you are looking for.
The latest trend in web development is the move away from managing your own backend servers to something called no-backend where the backend is cloud-based and managed for you automatically. Firebase is the most famous stack that does this but it is proprietary and you risk getting vendor-locked and stuck with it in the future. An open-source to Firebase is Supabase. It is an open-source stack that will enable you to create frontends without having to worry about repeated things like authentication and database backup, maintenance, and security.
