Couldn't find the info on the website, does the JS shown in the samples run in the client's browser?
If so, I'd be coupling my client code to the implementation details of my server side DB. Nope, no thanks. Too many scars to fall for that again.
[Supabase cofounder] Yes, although you can run this on the serverside too (we do). It's a rapid way to go "mostly ORMless" - you just focus on your database and we can do the repetitive stuff (CRUD)
You'll also be able to add rate-limiting and various other plugins (IP bans, blacklisting) to your API as well. We still have a lot to build - we didn't actually post this so it's a bit early but I guess you can't choose your timing
