it's a good question - one we get often. despite our "firebase alternative" positioning, this isn't something that we plan to tackle, at least for the foreseeable future.

There are already great platforms out there (e.g. Netlify and Vercel), whereas there are still a lot of unsolved problems in the database/postgres space. We're focusing on database problems first-and-foremost and the backlog hasn't shrunk enough to even think about website hosting.

Likewise, is there a possibility of Supabase enabling push notifications or automated emails for its users? I have switched to Supabase for most of my newer projects, but honestly push notifications are the last thing tying me to firebase products. Perhaps it would be possible to add some Sendgrid integration within the dashboard, as you have done for Twilio Auth?

You surely can use Supabase to send push notifications and automated emails by integrating with OneSignal. Check out this example of a Supabase Edge Function being used conditionally send and email/push based on user preference.

yes, we're working with an integration partner for Push Notifications. check back on Friday :)

I believe the unfortunate situation with Push Notifications for Android is that you still need to sign up for Firebase project (because you need a Google/Firebase Server API Key).
