Why Switch from Firebase?
Firebase locks you into Google's proprietary NoSQL ecosystem with pricing that scales unpredictably. Supabase is an open-source Firebase alternative built on PostgreSQL with authentication, real-time subscriptions, and storage. Using standard SQL means your data and skills are portable. Supabase offers a generous free tier and transparent pricing that grows predictably with your application.

- ✓Authentication, real-time, storage, and edge functions included
- ✓Generous free tier for development and small projects
- ✓Standard SQL instead of proprietary query languages
- ✓Self-hosting available for complete infrastructure control
Supabase Cons
- ✗Fewer client SDKs compared to Firebase
- ✗Real-time capabilities are less mature than Firebase
- ✗Offline support is not built in like Firebase
