+
+Today we're releasing [supabase-js v2](https://github.com/supabase/supabase-js), which focuses on “quality-of-life” improvements for developers.
+
+Update your library by running `npm i @supabase/supabase-js@latest`.
+
+Nearly 2 years ago we [released supabase-js v1](https://supabase.com/blog/improved-dx).
+Since then it has been used in over [17K repositories](https://github.com/supabase/supabase-js/network/dependents?package_id=UGFja2FnZS04MjM3OTUyMDU%3D) and has grown
+to [50K weekly downloads](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@supabase/supabase-js). Supabase users give a lot of great feedback and we've
+learned some of the largest pain-points as a result.
+
+This release focuses on solving these pain-points. At the same time we want to make the upgrade path for supabase-js as easy as possible,
+so we've been strategic about the changes we're making. We plan to follow this model going forward: incremental changes over huge rewrites.
+
+## Major Updates
+
+### Type support
+
+If you followed yesterday's announcement, you will have noticed that we added
+[type generators](https://supabase.com/docs/reference/cli/usage#supabase-gen-types-typescript) to the CLI.
+
+```bash
+supabase start
+supabase gen types typescript --local > DatabaseDefinitions.ts
+```
+
+These types can now be used to enrich your development experience:
+
+```tsx
+import Definitions from './DatabaseDefinitions'
+
+const supabase = createClient<Definitions>(SUPABASE_URL, ANON_KEY)
+
+const { data } = await supabase.from('messages').select().match({ id: 1 })
+```
+
+<details>
+
+<summary>ℹ️ Differences from v1</summary>
+
+<p>
+  v1 also supported types, but the types were generated from the API rather than the database, so it
+  lost a lot of detailed information. The library also required you to specify the definition in
+  every function call, rather than at the client level.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+  <code>supabase.from<Definitions['Message']>('messages').select('*')</code>
+</p>
+
+</details>
+
+### Async Auth overhaul
+
+We've rebuilt the Auth library, making it async for almost all functions.
+
+```ts
+// v2
+const { data } = await supabase.auth.getSession()
+
+// v1
+const { data } = supabase.auth.session()
+```
+
+This solves the “getting logged out” issue, which has been a recurring issue in our GitHub Discussions.
+
+### New Auth methods
+
+We're removing the `signIn()` method in favor of more explicit function signatures:
+`signInWithPassword()`, `signInWithPasswordless()`, and `signInWithOtp()`.
+
+```ts
+// v2
+const { data } = await supabase.auth.signInWithPassword({
+  email: 'hello@example',
+  password: 'pass',
+})
+
+// v1
+const { data } = await supabase.auth.signIn({
+  email: 'hello@example',
+  password: 'pass',
+})
+```
+
+This helps with type hinting. Previously it was difficult for developers to know what they were missing.
+A lot of developers didn't even realize they could use passwordless magic links.
+
+### Data functions return minimal by default
+
+The `insert()`, `update()`, and `upsert()` functions now require you to explicitly append `select()` if you want the data to be returned.
+
+```tsx
+// v2
+const { data } = await supabase.from('messages').insert({ id: 1, message: 'Hello world' }).select() // select is now explicitly required
+
+// v1
+const { data } = await supabase.from('messages').insert({ id: 1, message: 'Hello world' }) // insert would also "select()"
+```
+
+This was another common question in our GitHub Discussions. While the idea of automatically returning data is great,
+developers often turn on Row Level Security (which is great), and then they forget to add a `select` Policy.
+It is a bit surprising that you need to add a `select` policy to do an `insert`, so we opted for the “principle of least surprise”.
+If you don't append `select()`, the `data` value will be an empty object: `{}`.
+
+<details>
+
+<summary>ℹ️ Differences from v1</summary>
+
+<p>
+  Previously you could pass a `returning: 'minimal'` option to the `insert()`, `update()`, and
+  `upsert()` statements. We've now made this the default behaviour.
+</p>
+
+</details>
