Set Up Database Schema: Use either the Table interface or SQL Editor to create your database tables and schema. You can use the 'User Management Starter' quickstart template or write custom SQL commands.
Install Supabase Client: Install the Supabase client library in your project using npm: 'npm install @supabase/supabase-js' or use CDN script tags for browser-only apps.
Initialize Supabase Client: Create a Supabase client instance using your project URL and public anon key: 'const supabase = createClient('https://your-project.supabase.co', 'public-anon-key')
Set Up Authentication: Implement authentication using Supabase Auth - you can use the auth-ui library for pre-built UI components or implement custom auth flows using the Auth API.
Query Your Database: Use the Supabase client to perform database operations like select, insert, update and delete. The API provides a simple interface similar to GraphQL for nested queries.
Enable Realtime: Subscribe to realtime changes in your database using the Realtime API to receive live updates when data changes.
Set Up Storage: Use Supabase Storage to handle file uploads and storage in your application. Create buckets and manage file permissions.
Local Development: Use 'supabase start' to run Supabase locally for development. Access local Studio at http://localhost:54323. Use 'supabase db pull' to sync schema changes.
