Vue + Vite + Supabase
A Vue client application with managed authentication and relational data: static frontend delivery, explicit row policies, and server functions for privileged work.

When to use it
- Most screens are behind a login
- The team prefers Vue and relational data
- Simple user ownership can be enforced with tested row policies
How the pieces fit
Vue components and composables manage UI; Vite builds the frontend. Supabase provides authentication and Postgres access. Enforce row-level security before exposing tables, and keep privileged service credentials in server functions. Treat route guards as navigation help rather than authorization. Test logout, refresh, and cross-account access; use server rendering separately when public pages need it.
Tools and responsibilities
Architectural examples
Each example links to a public source — no claims about private internals.
create-vue
The official Vue scaffolder creates Vite-based projects. Frontend starter example; it does not demonstrate Supabase integration.
sourceVue RealWorld
This public RealWorld application illustrates a Vue frontend with API-backed authentication and CRUD. Historical partial example; it does not establish the exact Vue version or backend recommended here.
sourceSkip if
Skip if public pages require server rendering, or complex organization permissions need a dedicated server authorization layer.
