Start Local Development

Create a Supabase workspace and start the local stack:

supabase init
supabase start
supabase status

The local stack includes Postgres, Auth, Realtime, Storage, Edge Functions, and the Supabase APIs.

Start from a template:

supabase bootstrap

Link A Project

Connect your local workspace to a hosted Supabase project:

supabase login
supabase link

Manage Your Database

Create migrations, compare schemas, and apply changes locally or to your linked project:

supabase migration new create_profiles
supabase db diff
supabase db push
supabase db reset

Deploy Edge Functions

Build, serve, and deploy functions from the same project workspace:

supabase functions new hello-world
supabase functions serve
supabase functions deploy hello-world

Generate Types

Generate TypeScript types from your local database or linked project:

supabase gen types --local
supabase gen types --linked

Reference

Use --help on any command to explore flags and examples:

supabase db --help
supabase functions deploy --help

• Local development guide
• Supabase docs

Developing

This repository is a pnpm monorepo. The published package lives in apps/cli.

pnpm install
cd apps/cli

pnpm dev:next -- --help
pnpm check:all
pnpm test:core

Useful source entry points:

Path	Purpose
apps/cli	TypeScript/Bun CLI package
apps/cli-go	Go CLI source used by the legacy shell
packages/stack	Local Supabase stack runtime
packages/config	Config schema and generated types
packages/api	Typed Supabase Management API client

After a fresh clone, install the reference repositories used for agent and developer inspection:

pnpm repos:install

Contributing

We love focused pull requests with a clear problem, a small surface area, and tests that match the user-facing behavior.

Open an issue first and wait for a maintainer to add the open-for-contribution label before starting work — external pull requests that don't link a labeled, open issue are closed automatically. See CONTRIBUTING.md for the full workflow.

Before opening a PR, run the checks for the workspace you touched.

pnpm check:all
pnpm test

PR titles must use conventional commits, for example:

fix(cli): handle linked projects without cached service versions
