Did you know it's been 2 years since the first commit to Realtime, our real-time engine for Postgres? Before we even existed as a company! We spent this month updating docs and content, improving UX, and onboarding Developer Advocates!

Hackathon v2

To kick off Hacktoberfest, another Supabase Hackathon is happening right now. You've got another 7 days to be in to win a limited edition t-shirt.

Abort Requests

We added support for AbortController in our Javascript library so that you can abort long-running queries. [Docs]

Improved table management

We've made a number of changes to the Dashboard to expose some great features of PostgreSQL including:

Column types

We've improved the column Type field so that it supports your custom types.

Is Unique

We've made it simple to add a unique constraint when creating or editing a table.

Edit columns

By popular request, you can now view all columns in a table at a glance and edit them in bulk.

Cross-schema relationships

We updated our grid to support relationships across multiple schemas.

Improved Auth Docs

We've revamped the Auth docs - The docs are now broken down into Authentication and Authorization, and organized alongside our Deep Dive series.

Low Code demo

Low Code demo, Using Supabase with Clutch.io - @_dijonmusters ran a session at General Assembly showing how to use these two tools together to create apps using a low code approach.
