‫Let's start by quickly getting to know
‫Superbase a bit.
‫So Superbase is a service that allows developers
‫to easily and quickly create a backend
‫with a complete Postgres database.
‫But to us developers, it doesn't even matter
‫what kind of database it is
‫because we will only interface with it through an API.
‫So this is the really nice part of Superbase
‫because Superbase will automatically create a database
‫and a matching API so that we can very easily request
‫and receive data from the server.
‫So where the Postgres database is actually hosted.
‫So it's really all extremely simple.
‫So instead of having to go through the complicated process
‫of building a whole backend
‫and setting up a database ourselves,
‫we simply let Superbase take care of all this
‫so it's all included and automatic,
‫no backend development needed,
‫which is perfect for front end developers
‫who just want to quickly get up and running
‫with a new project.
‫And if this sounds great, it gets even better
‫because Superbase is actually more than just an API.
‫It's actually a complete solution
‫that also includes user authentication and file storage
‫and again, all accessible from an API
‫or from their own JavaScript library.
‫So with this, you can essentially build
‫full stack applications without knowing anything
‫about backend development.
‫Now, if this sounds like I'm reading an ad here,
‫I guarantee you that I'm not.
‫So I never spoke to the guys at Superbase.
‫I just really love this product
‫because it's so, so easy to use and I'm not the only one.
‫So, Superbase is growing super fast,
‫so you're gonna be in good company.
‫All right.
‫So with this out of the way,
‫let's now start building the backend
‫for the Wild Oasis Management app.
