## Problem Four docs pages describe CLI behavior that v2.120.0 no longer has. A reader following them hits a wrong result in three places. - The declarative guide tells legacy-engine users who ran `db pull --declarative` to delete the exported tree. The command also rewrites `[db.migrations].schema_paths` in `config.toml`, so `db diff` keeps failing after the delete. The guide also claims the failure happens "on the first file". The code does not guarantee that. - The declarative directory moved from `supabase/database` to `supabase/schemas` in v2.115.0. The CLI warns when it finds a tree at the old path. No page mentions the move or the warning, and the `db schema declarative sync` example in the command reference still prints the old path. - The command reference marks `--experimental` as required on the declarative commands. `[experimental.pgdelta] enabled = true` also unlocks them. Two smaller gaps: the diff engines page shows how to fall back to `migra` for one run but not how to try `pg-delta` for one run, and the guide omits the note `db diff -f` prints when it ignores schema files. Every claim was checked against the CLI source on `develop` and the v2.120.0 tag. ## Solution Docs-only change. Four files, 17 insertions, 8 deletions. - `declarative-database-schemas.mdx`: corrects the legacy caution, documents the pre-2.115.0 directory and its warning, adds the `db diff -f` note. - `diff-engines.mdx`: adds the single-run opt-in table (`db diff --use-pg-delta`, `db pull --diff-engine pg-delta`, `--experimental` for the declarative commands) and the `SUPABASE_EXPERIMENTAL_PG_DELTA` override. Updates the legacy `db pull --declarative` row. Prettier realigned the comparison table, which accounts for most of that page's diff. - `cli_v1_config.yaml`: `schema_paths` notes the automatic rewrite on `migra` and the warning on `pg-delta`. `declarative_schema_path` notes the pre-2.115.0 default. - `cli_v1_commands.yaml`: fixes the example path and drops `required: true` from `--experimental` on the two declarative commands. Both match the spec the CLI generator produces from `develop`. The command reference is generated from the CLI repo, so the same fixes are in supabase/cli as a separate PR. Without that, the next release's reference update reverts them here. ## Review instructions 1. Open the preview for `/docs/guides/local-development/declarative-database-schemas` and search for "schema_paths". The legacy caution should say the command rewrites the setting and tell readers to remove it. 2. On the same page, search for "2.115.0". The directory note should name the version and both fixes. 3. Open the preview for `/docs/guides/local-development/diff-engines` and search for "single run". The opt-in table should render, and the comparison table below it should still align. 4. Open the CLI reference for `db schema declarative sync`. The second example should print `supabase/schemas`, and `--experimental` should not show as required. 5. Open the config reference entries for `db.migrations.schema_paths` and `experimental.pgdelta.declarative_schema_path` and read the added sentences. 6. Optional source check in supabase/cli `develop`: `updateDeclarativeSchemaPathsConfig` in `apps/cli/src/commands/db/shared/pgdelta.write.ts` and `apps/cli/src/commands/db/schema/declarative/declarative.former-default.ts` back the two main claims. ## Checklist Check all before review: - [x] I have read [CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/supabase/supabase/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md) - [x] If I wrote a new docs topic or edited an existing topic, I used the `/write-the-docs` or `/edit-the-docs` skill, which applies the docs [style guide](https://github.com/supabase/supabase/tree/master/apps/docs/style-guide) --------- Co-authored-by: avallete <andrew.valleteau@supabase.io> Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

How it works
Supabase is a combination of open source tools. We’re building the features of Firebase using enterprise-grade, open source products. If the tools and communities exist, with an MIT, Apache 2, or equivalent open license, we will use and support that tool. If the tool doesn't exist, we build and open source it ourselves. Supabase is not a 1-to-1 mapping of Firebase. Our aim is to give developers a Firebase-like developer experience using open source tools.
Architecture
Supabase is a hosted platform. You can sign up and start using Supabase without installing anything. You can also self-host and develop locally.
- Postgres is an object-relational database system with over 30 years of active development that has earned it a strong reputation for reliability, feature robustness, and performance.
- Realtime is an Elixir server that allows you to listen to PostgreSQL inserts, updates, and deletes using websockets. Realtime polls Postgres' built-in replication functionality for database changes, converts changes to JSON, then broadcasts the JSON over websockets to authorized clients.
- PostgREST is a web server that turns your PostgreSQL database directly into a RESTful API.
- GoTrue is a JWT-based authentication API that simplifies user sign-ups, logins, and session management in your applications.
- Storage a RESTful API for managing files in S3, with Postgres handling permissions.
- pg_graphql a PostgreSQL extension that exposes a GraphQL API.
- postgres-meta is a RESTful API for managing your Postgres, allowing you to fetch tables, add roles, and run queries, etc.
- Envoy is a cloud-native, high-performance edge and service proxy.
Client libraries
Our approach for client libraries is modular. Each sub-library is a standalone implementation for a single external system. This is one of the ways we support existing tools.
