Hey everyone! I’m currently building out the backend architecture for Ready to Echo, a mobile travel and culinary location-saving app built on React, Capacitor, and Supabase.
We’re heavily leveraging Supabase for database hosting and edge functions, but we’re hitting a point where we need a cleaner, more scalable automation layer to handle asynchronous tasks (like external API syncs, notification triggers, and creator workflow handoffs).
I'd love to tap into the community's experience here:
Supabase Native vs. External Orchestration: Are you leaning toward native Postgres triggers and Supabase Edge Functions for complex event-driven workflows, or is it worth spinning up an external low-code engine like n8n or Make.com early on?
State & Error Handling: When background syncs fail across mobile clients, how are you handling retries without hammering your database or leaving ghost states in local storage?
