Supabase
Database & Auth
A robust backend-as-a-service providing a PostgreSQL database with Row Level Security (RLS) and seamless Google Authentication integration.
Tailwind CSS
Styling & Design System
Utility-first CSS framework combined with shadcn/ui components ensures a consistent, responsive, and accessible design system across the entire application.
Security
Middleware & RLS
Protected routes via Next.js middleware and database-level security policies ensure that user data remains private and secure at all times.

Key Implementation Highlights

Unified Authentication Flow

Replaced separate login pages with a streamlined modal approach directly on the landing page, significantly reducing drop-off rates.

Optimized Asset Loading

Images and fonts are optimized using Next.js built-in components to ensure Core Web Vitals are met.

Type Safety

End-to-end TypeScript integration from the database schema (generated from Supabase) to the UI components.
