Replacebase – library to migrate away from Supabase

Hacker News

Hey folks! There has been a lot of talk recently about the reliability of Supabase and migrating away to other database providers (or even hosting Postgres yourself). I'm a big proponent of writing actual backend code rather than locking yourself into frameworks like Supabase. If you already built all your client-side code around it though, then migrating is not a trivial task. Replacebase is designed to help with that. It's a Typescript library that you can plug into actual backend code that exposes a Supabase-compatible API so that you don't have to make significant changes to your frontend. It's designed to be a stepping stone for further migration, letting you switch database and storage providers and eventually move to a bespoke backend architecture without Supabase lock-in (at which point you can also remove Replacebase!) Would love your thoughts: https://github.com/specific-dev/replacebase
