Environment Management & CI/CD

When building applications, it's crucial to manage different stages of development. These stages are called environments.

Typically, you'll work with three main environments:

• Development (Dev): Where developers write and test new features.
• Staging: A pre-production environment for testing by QA or stakeholders.
• Production (Prod): The live application used by your end-users.

Each environment helps isolate changes and prevent issues in the live app.

For effective environment management, it's best practice to have separate Supabase projects for each major environment.

This means you'd have:

• One Supabase project for your development database, auth, storage.
• Another Supabase project for staging.
• A final, distinct Supabase project for production.

This isolation prevents accidental data loss or breaking changes from affecting your live application.
