We shipped WishPin in exactly one month from scratch, and I'm damn proud of that

Idk how the hell people are out here bragging about shipping things in hours

Figured out how to automate building AND uploading to Test Flight for my Expo app 🚀

I just run `npm run build:tf` and it calls these two scripts

Threw together a new short vid this morning based on some React Native shenanigans I've been up to

Helped me debug a crash issue with the app Im working on

Finally I'm going to highlight authorization with Supabase and Clerk and how RLS is used to prevent the user from accessing data they shouldnt have access to, along with some key requirements to make Supabase and Clerk work together.

Next I got a section comparing the traditional approach with how Supabase works and how Supabase verifies JWTs with Clerk using the JWKS endpoint

Working on a video that outlines the new Clerk & Supabase integration and how the whole thing works. Looking for feedback 🤗

First few slides walk through how a typical multi-tier application works, both independently and with Clerk.

Proud to see that my @supabase.com articles have taken over the top of the @clerk.com blog! Here's what I cover in these:

1. Compare Supabase Auth vs Clerk
2. Explain how Clerk and Supabase work with @nextjs.org
3. How to build a B2B app with the two

More breakdown and links below 👇

Took a personal day to hike with the fam yesterday. Touched more rain than grass, but it was nice to get out into nature 🏔️

Anyone ever use Figma to map out their components or just me?

Big changes are coming

Back to building directly on AWS. Some people are scared of it, but I actually quite enjoy the challenge.

Ran into some weirdness when building my authorizer so thought I’d write about it

I want a future where @jason.energy does all his content like this
