I’ve been using Deno Deploy as as a paying customer for the last year, both because I want to support what they’re doing and because I appreciate the amazingly tight deployment times.

That said, it’s suffered for the lack of access to the file system or dynamic imports which makes things like MDX challenging without adding additional build steps.

Do Supabase Edge Functions allow read/write file system access? What about dynamic imports?

Hi Mark, hosted Supabase Edge Functions would still run on Deno Deploy, so those limitations would still exist. However, we plan to introduce file system access via integration with Supabase Storage. This is still a rough idea stage, maybe we'll have a solid answer in a couple of months :)

For dynamic imports, we haven't looked into it since Supabase users haven't requested it. If you can open an issue on Edge Runtime repo [0] and explain how you intend to use them, we can probably work on a solution.
