This uses deno deploy under the hood, which interestingly enough still doesn't list pricing because it is pre-release.

Love me some supabase... probably the most fun platform out there at the moment.

Supabase is becoming quite impressive, I think the main thing missing is a native iOS/Android sdk.

Awesome! Congrats for shipping!

90% of the projects I work on are built on Firebase, our main worry with that is that we are locked-in, not only to "Firebase", but to Google as well which has a nasty history of just pulling the rug from under your feet without even telling you why.

Having alternatives to try and implement is always a priority for us and Supabase now (w/ edge functions) seems to cover most of our use cases, so we are definitely looking to switch to it.

I'd love to learn more about how its making use of Deno. I have been loving Supabase lately, both for hacking away at side projects. I have been thinking about moving some of my own backends over to Supabase.

I am curious how the edge functions can replace Firebase?

hey everyone, supabase ceo here. The team is extremely excited about this release.

This one has been a long-time coming. It's one of our most requested features. We spent a long time getting the Developer Experience right - we investigated several approaches (Containers, Isolates, WASM), and eventually landed with Deno.

Big shout-out to the Deno team. Their open source and DX-focused philosophy made it an obvious choice in the end. We've wrapped their open-source runtime to make the Supabase experience as integrated as possible, from the local CLI development, to realtime logs on the Dashboard. Edge Functions are still Experimental, so make sure you send your feedback to make the experience even better.

We'll have a few of the team in the discussion ready to answer any questions.
