client libs are one of our next focuses. we've been discussing internally how to do this. So far we have concentrated on the JS/Dart libs because that makes up a large portion of our users. Over the last 3 months the community has added (and documented) libraries for Swift[0] and C#[0].

We hope to continue making this a community-driven endeavor, so if anyone reading this would like to become a maintainer for one of the libraries (especially Python), please reach out. If we can't find maintainers we'll find a polyglot who can work on this full-time.

I once had a computer magazine publisher tell me they only published Windows content because none of their readers used Mac or Linux.

It sounds similar to how my ISP only offers 25mbps upload to go with 900mbps download because "none of our customers use any more than 25mbps".

Of course they won't use more than 25mbps if you literally throttle them to that speed. What a joke.

sounds like they were just getting started and knew the efficacy of focus :)

Are these types of positions paid?

[kiwicopple]

yes, we pay maintainers. See "giving back" in our blog post from last year:

Will you consider supporting C++? I’d like to use the supabase APIs, specifically the real-time APIs, from my ESP32s and other C++ projects.

We don't have a lot of C++ experience in the team, but I'll share your feedback with the Realtime team - perhaps we can find someone in the community to help
