In this comprehensive guide, you'll build a secure, production-grade multi-tenant ticket system, seamlessly integrated with Next.js.

Who is this book for?
This book is for developers looking for a hassle-free, universal solution to building robust apps using Supabase and its integration libraries. While a basic understanding of JavaScript is useful, it’s not essential as the book focuses on Supabase for creating high-performance web apps using Next.js. Experienced professionals from non-JavaScript backgrounds will find this book useful. Familiarity with Postgres, although helpful, is not mandatory as the book explains all the SQL statements used.

The book guides you through a beginner project, involving ticketing. Nothing you couldn't get for free on YouTube, or in a more affordable, and more complete format through a Udemy course.

Supabase is an open source alternative to firebase, I never tried it until I picked up this book. This book is helpful for beginners and more, it walks you through setting up projects and how to get the most out of them it even helps with setting up authentication features. I definitely recommend this book for those looking to ad more tools to the dev box. I also thought the ticket management system in chapter 3 was a great feature. Thanks for creating this book.

Where can I send feedback about an Early Access title?
If you have any feedback about the product you're reading, or Early Access in general, then please fill out a contact form here and we'll make sure the feedback gets to the right team.
Can I download the code files for Early Access titles?
We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.
When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.
How accurate is the publication date?
The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.
How will I know when new chapters are ready?
We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.

What is Early Access?
Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available.

Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most.
