Congrats, the project looks solid. It's obviously targeted to JS devs who are familiar with firebase or want an easy/similar abstraction for realtime apps. It's great to have several great frameworks tackling the same problem with different flavours (Hasura, Phoenix, Supabase, etc), all with postgres as first class citizen.

I feel like the key is in the choice for the realtime backend (Phoenix/Elixir). I've built real-time firebase apps (JS) in the past and today my choice would probably be Phoenix. It also saves many LoC (80-90%?), and it's a joy to work with. Reduces the JS fatigue and opens up a new paradigm that makes programming fun again.
