how do developers learn from the docs ?
then my next question was 'how hook into the video feed so that i can run some code when a new video frame happens?' so i google'd that and chatgpt'd it and eventually i found an example of a simple plugin that did that

how do developers learn from the docs ?
personally (maybe this is just me) i only look at the docs for reference. i never start there. ill start with a project in mind and break it up into pieces until i get down to a fundamental question i dont know how to answer, then i'll just look for the answer to that specific question and go from there.

Migrating from Firebase to Supabase
I’ll have to look into it. I don’t see where they say explicitly this will help with the real-time stuff which is what my app needed

Migrating from Firebase to Supabase
there is some vendor lock in to be concerned about, but most of the stuff is pretty easy to migrate. supabase has a way to import firebase users. storage can just be downloaded, and firebase has a backup process that allows you to download the whole db in a bulk zip

Migrating from Firebase to Supabase
thats just my app, but basically my point is that while i agree with theo that relational databases are generally a better choice, the firebase stuff has things that nobody else has

Migrating from Firebase to Supabase
so my app keeps the queryable data / data that needs transactions in supabase. it then pushes app state to firebase to push it out to the clients. auth is in firebase and image storage is in firebase as well

Migrating from Firebase to Supabase
oh and finally. supabase jumps in price from free to $25 per month, as opposed to google which just charges you for usage after you break the free tier

Migrating from Firebase to Supabase
it also doesnt push app state, it just pushes transactions, which are much harder to work with IMO

Migrating from Firebase to Supabase
and supabase claims to have 'realtime push with pg notifications' but they really only seem to support ~200 clients connected at once as far as i can tell

Migrating from Firebase to Supabase
for storage supabase storage seems to be cheaper, but i think its still s3 based so you need to write a bunch of code to use pre-signed urls and things like that

Migrating from Firebase to Supabase
supabase has a ton more auth providers, but im happy with just 'sign in with google' for now since everyone has that. i believe its also significantly more expensive and the api is similar but not directly compatible

Migrating from Firebase to Supabase
cloud firestore is awesome for pushing application state directly from the db. cloud storage is more expensive than s3 but the security rules les you limit upload sizes without needing your own server. and firebase auth (while not as comprehensive as supabase) is wayyyy cheaper than pretty much any other option out there.
