nanobase, a single-binary Supabase alternative
A Rust-built backend that aims to bundle PostgreSQL, authentication, storage, realtime, Web Studio, and MCP tools into one Supabase-compatible process.
Why it surfaced
nanobase is unusually specific about the machinery: its benchmark compares a claimed 59 MB single process with a 2,291 MB local Docker stack, while its embedded MCP server exposes 26 tools for schema inspection, migrations, role simulation, and SQL repair. The v0.1.0 project also documents CLI workflows, SDK compatibility, realtime CDC, and scale-to-zero multi-tenancy rather than stopping at an AI slogan.
