Questions people ask before they start

Do I need prior Postgres experience?

No. The first lesson, 'What Supabase Is (and What It's Built On)', explains the Postgres foundation before you touch anything hands-on.

Will I actually build something, or is this just theory?

You'll create a real project, connect a real application to it, and finish with a hands-on lesson building an actual connected table.

What will I have working by the end of the course?

A Supabase project with your application connected to it and a real table you built and connected yourself in the final hands-on lesson.

Does this course cover advanced Supabase features like auth or edge functions?

No. This course sticks to what's in the curriculum: understanding what Supabase is, creating a project, connecting an application, and building a connected table.

Is this course specific to one programming language or framework?

The curriculum focuses on the 'Connecting Your Application' lesson to link any application to your Supabase project, rather than a single framework.

Why is a cybersecurity company teaching this?

Securafy built AI University to teach people to build real software with AI safely, and this course starts that foundation with real Postgres and Supabase tooling rather than shortcuts.
