The generated code follows clean architecture patterns and includes authentication (JWT), authorization (RBAC), input validation, error handling, logging, and testing setup out of the box.</p> <p>What distinguishes Amplication from low-code platforms is that the generated code is fully editable. Developers can extend it with custom business logic, modify generated files, and integrate with existing services without fighting the platform. When the data model changes, Amplication merges updates with custom code rather than overwriting it.</p>https://www.solosoft.dev/post/supabase-backend-2026/Fri, 01 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000https://www.solosoft.dev/post/supabase-backend-2026/<p>For years, Firebase was the default choice for developers who wanted a backend without managing servers. It provided authentication, database, storage, and hosting in a single package — but at a cost: vendor lock-in to Google&rsquo;s proprietary ecosystem, NoSQL data modeling that broke down for relational data, and a pricing model that became expensive at scale.</p> <p>Supabase emerged as the answer to every Firebase frustration. It wraps PostgreSQL — the world&rsquo;s most advanced open-source relational database — with a Firebase-like developer experience. Authentication, realtime subscriptions, file storage, and serverless functions are all built on PostgreSQL&rsquo;s native capabilities. The result is a backend platform that offers the convenience of Firebase with the power and flexibility of relational databases.</p>
