Summary

Supabase, an open-source project that started in 2020 with just two founders and a Postgres database, has grown into a community of eight million developers, achieving 100,000 GitHub stars. The founders emphasize that their focus has always been on creating a positive experience for developers, with stars being a byproduct of that mission. Supabase prides itself on supporting existing tools and communities, functioning as a "community of communities" by collaborating with open-source projects like Postgres, PostgREST, pgvector, Deno, imgproxy, and the Elixir Phoenix Framework. The team continues to advocate for Postgres as the default database for new internet projects, aiming to enhance its scalability and storage capabilities while fostering innovation through their collaborative and supportive approach.
