Progressive Web App Development with Supabase

Offline is the feature people actually want. Field staff in patchy coverage need the thing to keep working and sync later, and that design decision shapes the whole data layer.

Supabase is strongest at production-grade auth and RLS without building them, on standard Postgres you can leave. For progressive web app development that matters because the failure modes of this kind of system tend to cluster exactly there.

The honest trade-off: opinionated in ways that occasionally fight a complex custom auth model. We say that up front because a stack chosen for fashion rather than fit becomes someone's migration project two years later. We start from the constraint, not the capability, what the system must never do, who signs off, and what happens when it is wrong.

Six weeks to something running in production, not six quarters to a strategy document.
