Support.dev – a non-trivial Vue and Supabase app

I built this tool about a year ago to get really good at the supabase ecosystem. We were trying to raise money on the idea, but that didn't occur, so I wanted to open-source it, as I would love to give back to the commmunity. It allows you to invite friends and family to be helpers for child-care, meals, and transportation, and then you can create an event and they will get auto-invited to it and can choose to support you. It is using vue on the frontend and then supabase on the backend for auth, database, realtime, storage, and edge functions. Anyway, I hope someone finds it useful, there…

In plain words

Support.dev is an open-source application built with Vue and Supabase that helps coordinate support for families by managing child-care, meal, and transportation assistance. Users invite friends and family as helpers, create events, and helpers automatically receive invitations to choose how they can support. The app demonstrates advanced Supabase features including authentication, database triggers that call edge functions, real-time notifications, and cloud storage integration.

    Hey there HN! We’re Joe and Stopa, and today we’re open sourcing InstantDB, a client-side database that makes it easy to build real-time and collaborative apps like Notion and Figma. Building modern apps these days involves a lot of schleps. For a basic CRUD app you need to spin up servers, wire up endpoints, integrate auth, add permissions, and then marshal data from the backend to the frontend and back again. If you want to deliver a buttery smooth user experience, you’ll need to add optimistic updates and rollbacks. We do these steps over and over for every feature we build, which can…
