## I have read the [CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/supabase/supabase/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md) file. YES ## What kind of change does this PR introduce? Docs update. Style only. ## What is the current behavior? The API keys guide has drifted from `WORD_LIST.md` and `CONTRIBUTING.md`. It also carries two defects: - The rotation steps tell you to replace the new key with the compromised one, rather than the reverse. - The secret key caution list opens with "Do not:" but several items read "Never use" and "Do not pass", which inverts them into the opposite instruction. ## What is the new behavior? Word-level edit. No section is added, moved, or reordered, so the restructure in the next PR of this stack lands as a readable set of moved lines. - Fix the reversed rotation instruction. - Rewrite the caution list so every item completes its "Don't:" stem. - Replace the Silicon Valley character names and trailing ellipses in the responsibility table. - Drop italics used for plain emphasis, parenthetical asides, `etc.`, `&`, the lint-flagged "easy", and existential sentence openers. - Replace "since" and "as" used for cause, and future tense used for current product behavior. ## Additional context PR 1 of 4. Base is `master`. ## Manual testing 1. Open [Understanding API keys](https://docs-git-docs-api-keys-style-edit-supabase.vercel.app/docs/guides/getting-started/api-keys) on the deploy preview. 2. Read the secret key caution list. Every item completes the "Don't:" stem. 3. Read "What to do if a secret key or `service_role` has been leaked or compromised". The order is: create the new key, then replace the compromised key with it. <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **Documentation** * Rewritten the API keys guide with clearer wording and improved structure. * Clarified how to access API keys through the Connect dialog and distinguished API keys from Supabase Auth. * Updated explanations of publishable and secret keys, including cautions, security best practices, and steps for responding to leaked keys. * Refined guidance on known limitations and compatibility differences. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai -->

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.
