Supabase for Vibe Coders
Your AI tool probably already wired up a database for you. Here is what it actually did:
### Tables
Spreadsheets in the cloud. Each row is a thing (a user, a post, an order).
### Auth
Handles sign-up and sign-in so you never store passwords yourself.
### RLS
The guard at the door. Rules like "users can only see their own orders." Never launch without it.
### Storage
Where images and files live.
You do not need to be a database expert — but you do need to know these four things exist.
