Happy New Year! Hope you are off to a great start. We closed 2022 on a high note with Launch Week 6 and a cascade of announcements. Here is everything we shipped so you can try them all 💻
Day 1: New Docs
Documentation is super important to us, it's part of the product, and the Supabase docs needed a refresh. That's why we worked on a new redesign, better navigation, better reference docs, and we rebuilt the site using Next.js.
Day 2: Storage v2 - Image resizing and Smart CDN
We introduced three new features for Supabase Storage: Image resizing, webhooks, and a Smart CDN. These features are designed to work together to deliver a next-gen image resizing system.
Day 3 - Multi-factor Authentication via Row Level Security Enforcement
We released Multi-factor Authentication (MFA) for everyone, including the option to enforce it via RLS 🔐. Plus, in preparation for releasing SAML, we're "dogfooding" the feature with the introduction of Single Sign On (SSO) on our dashboard.
Day 4 - Supabase Wrappers, a Postgres FDW framework
Foreign Data Wrappers are a core feature of PostgreSQL. With Supabase Wrappers, we've extended this feature to query other databases or any other external system (including third-party APIs), using SQL.
Day 5 - The Vault is now in Beta
The Vault is a new Postgres extension that makes it safe and easy to store encrypted secrets and encrypt other stored data in your database.
Community Day
It's starting to feel like Supabase is really just a "community of communities" 🤗. Far too much has happened in the last 3 months for us to possibly feature it all here, so here's a collection of the highlights!
Postgres Ecosystem
We are all in on Postgres. That is why contributing to the ecosystem is always a priority. Launch Week 6 was no exception, with several announcements:
- pg_graphql v1.0
- PostgREST 11 pre-release
- What's new in Postgres 15?
- pg_crdt - an experimental CRDT extension for Postgres
Custom Domains and Point-in-Time Recovery
Two key features to level up your projects are now available: Custom domains allow you to use your own domain for your Supabase project, while PITR provides the ability for a database to be restored at any specified point in time.
Hackathon Winners
It was great to see so many high-quality projects. The decision wasn't easy, but in the end, the panel of judges chose Depulso as the winner of the Best Overall Project.
Congratulations 👏 to @_iamkarthikeyan and @SindhuMansi who get each a Supabase Darkmode Keyboard and the $1500 Github sponsorship!
