Part 3 of 3. Stack: #50742 → #50744 → #50743. Review #50742 and #50744 first. Closes DOCS-1177 ## Problem `CONTRIBUTING.md` mixed how to write a page with how the repo is laid out. That's why it reached 568 lines, and why a contributor looking for either half reads past the other. #50742 gives the writing half its own home. ## Solution Trim `CONTRIBUTING.md` to repo mechanics, 568 lines down to 163. **Removed**, now in the style guide: general principles, information types, document types, components and elements, styling and grammar, word usage. **Kept**: the skills table, repo organization, guide and reference structure, content reuse, search. Content listings keeps its data file, ID rules, and test command here; the when-to-use-one part is in the style guide. **Added**: a table linking each style guide file. Wire the contributor-facing entry points at the guide: - `apps/docs/AGENTS.md` — gains a style guide section listing each file separately, so an agent can load one file without the others. This auto-loads for anything under `apps/docs`, making it the highest-leverage pointer in the repo. - Root `AGENTS.md` — claimed the skills are "the source of truth for conventions." For docs content style that's now the guide, with the skills as the process that applies it. - `.github/pull_request_template.md`, `.coderabbit.yaml`, `apps/docs/README.md`, `apps/docs/DEVELOPERS.md` — updated paths. Drop the `.prettierignore` exemption for `apps/docs/CONTRIBUTING.md`. It's short enough to format now, and a repo that publishes a style guide shouldn't exempt its own contributing doc. ## Notes for review Discoverability in a markdown-only guide is entirely these pointers, so they're the load-bearing part of this PR rather than cleanup. Both surviving anchor links into `CONTRIBUTING.md` target `#ai-agent-skills-for-docs-authoring`, which is kept. No dangling anchors. This PR sits last in the stack on purpose. It deletes the style sections that seven skill instructions referenced, so it has to land after #50744 rewires them. ## Manual testing 1. Open `apps/docs/CONTRIBUTING.md` and confirm every remaining section is repo mechanics, and the style guide table links resolve. 2. Confirm `apps/docs/AGENTS.md` names each style guide file, in size order: `WORD_LIST`, `01-voice-and-tone`, `02-elements`, `03-page-structure`. 3. Run `grep -rn "apps/docs/WORD_LIST" --include="*.md" --include="*.yaml" . | grep -v node_modules` and confirm only the intentional stub matches. 4. Run `npx prettier --config prettier.config.mjs --check apps/docs/CONTRIBUTING.md`. <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **Documentation** * Updated contributor guidance to distinguish writing conventions from repository mechanics, with the style guide as the reference for documentation style. * Added style guide links and clarified when to use the writing and editing skills. * Revised the docs contribution guide with a style guide file list and steps for adding content listings. * Updated the pull request checklist to direct contributors to the documentation skills for style guidance. <!-- 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.
