The VibeOrigin Verdict
The default backend for vibe coders. If you're building with Lovable, Bolt, or v0, you're probably already using Supabase. For good reason.
Deep Dive
What is Supabase?
Supabase gives you a Postgres database, auth, storage, realtime, and edge functions โ all in one platform, open-source. It's the default backend choice for vibe coders building with Lovable, Bolt, and v0. Works with any frontend, scales to production, and the free tier is genuinely useful. Firebase minus the vendor lock-in.
