+## Launch Week II: The SQL
+
+Following the success of our first Launch Week in March, we finished the July with "[Launch Week II: The SQL](/blog/2021/07/22/supabase-launch-week-sql)". 
+The community has been sieving through a slew of bad puns and retro memes to discover the new feature announcements.

+
+## Auth v2 with Phone Auth
+
+Your users can now log in with SMS based mobile auth! We have a Twilio integration ([Guide Here](https://supabase.io/docs/guides/auth/auth-twilio)) and will be adding more providers soon.
+
+Other Auth updating include, Twitch logins, and the ability to generate invite, recovery, confirmation, and magic links via the API, 
+for people who want more control over the email templating flow. Read the [blog post here](https://supabase.io/blog/2021/07/28/supabase-auth-passwordless-sms-login).

+## Storage is now in Beta
+
+Storage updates include Media Streaming, Public Buckets, Directory Uploads, and a Performance Improvements. 
+
+Streaming Media in particular opens up a whole new host of potential use cases, learn more about the [updates here](https://supabase.io/blog/2021/07/27/storage-beta).

+
+## Dashboard v2
+
+We made some major new additions to the dashboard including usage statistics, a new project home, and tons of database insights. 
+Check the [post here](https://supabase.io/blog/2021/07/29/supabase-reports-and-metrics) on what you get and how we built it.

+
+## We launched a Discord server
+
+You'll find us hanging out regularly in the #hangout channel. 
+We even "live-fixed" some production errors in there on Monday night (which occurred literally 1 hour before our first announcement of the week! Typical!). 
+We're fast approaching 1,500 members so come and join the action! [discord.supabase.com](https://discord.supabase.com)
+
+![We launched a Discord server](/new/images/blog/2021-july/discord.png)
+
+## PostgreSQL 13
+
+All new Supabase projects will be launched with PostgreSQL 13.3, and we're working on a migration path for old projects. 
+This gives you [looooaads of new stuff out the box](https://supabase.io/blog/2021/07/26/supabase-postgres-13).
+
+![PostgreSQL 13](/new/images/blog/2021-july/postgres-13.png)
+
+## PostgREST v8.0
+
+We worked with our friends at [PostgREST](https://postgrest.org/) to make some [huge improvements](https://supabase.io/blog/2021/07/26/supabase-community-day#postgrest-version-80). 
+For those of you who don't know, every Supabase instance comes with a dedicated PostgREST server by default, 
+which provides the auto-generated CRUD API that we wrap with `supabase-js`.
+
+![PostgREST v8.0](/new/images/blog/2021-july/postgrest-8.png)
