supabase-js VS Express

[Edge Functions] Custom domains and vanity domains support for Edge Functions. PR

First of all, the code you provided is not directly supabase, but is whatever is provided from the javascript library. The auth part is then redirecting to the gotrue-js library, and as seen here [Gotrue-JS#L238] it returns a `Promise` and that specific type is declared here Where we see it could be two return types. ```ts | { data: { user: User | null session: Session | null } error: null } | { data: { user: null session: null } error: AuthError }

Next up, Supabase released v2 of their JavaScript client library (supabase-js), which brought with it a number of developer experience type improvements, and streamlined how we use some of the API's. A number of methods were also deprecated in this new release, which we'll cover later in this guide.

We install the Supabase client library and also Chakra-UI which we will be using to build our React components.

The last part is the easiest as we simply need to connect Supabase to our Ionic app and call one function. Get started by bringing up a new Ionic app and install the Supabase JS client:

Under src/lib I have a .ts file where I create a supabase client inside.

First and foremost, the language and framework – Typescript & React. Typescript is a must for a project of this size. It provides safety and peace of mind as I iterate quickly to solve bugs and add new features. React is a by-product of the next two things I will mention, Next and Remix. Both of these are higher abstractions on top of React and supply incredible tooling to build fast server side rendered applications. Picking one or the other was driven by my database and auth provider, Supabase. I could have tried to make it work with Remix, but there was already an authentication helper for Next from the Supabase community so I decided on Next. Still using Remix for this current website since I do love Remix so much.

Have a look at https://postgrest.org/en/stable/. They do something in this direction and e.g. supabase.io uses them. Their approach is, if you have a database you have a REST API.

Wild, this 5.0 release has been cooking since 2014: https://github.com/expressjs/express/blob/5.x/History.md#500...

That’s also the full 5.0 change log so far for anyone interested.

Express: A lightweight framework for building web applications.

Now, we will create API using expressjs. When we created application using --ssr flag, the Angular CLI already took care of installing expressjs for us.

First, we import express. The Express framework allows us to create routes that will respond to webhook POST requests and serve an HTML file when a GET request is made to the root of the site.

Basic Knowledge of Express

Express.js Documentation

In the JavaScript ecosystem, there are guides for enabling SAML-based enterprise single sign-on in AdonisJS, Express.js, Next.js, Remix, and React with an Express.js backend.

Starting off strong with Express.js, the cool kid on the block for building web apps. It's lightweight, flexible, and doesn't throw a tantrum when you ask it to scale. With Express, you can handle HTTP requests like a pro, play around with middleware, set up routes without breaking a sweat, and render views that make your app look stunning. Big names like Netflix and Uber are already on board, and if it's good enough for them, it's definitely worth a peek.

Now we can install both Express and Socket.io libraries:
