Supabase and Firebase are the two most popular BaaS platforms for vibe coding tools like Lovable and Bolt. Both require proper security configuration, but their approaches differ significantly.
Scan Your AppBoth platforms are secure when properly configured. Supabase offers more powerful security at the database level, while Firebase provides more accessible tooling for testing. The 'better' choice depends on your team's expertise.
Choose Supabase if you're comfortable with SQL and want database-level security. Choose Firebase if you prefer visual tools and simpler syntax. Either way, use VAS to verify your configuration before launch.
When comparing Supabase vs Firebase, consider these broader security trends.

“Vibe coding your way to a production codebase is clearly risky. Most of the work we do as software engineers involves evolving existing systems, where the quality and understandability of the underlying code is crucial.”
Regardless of which platform you choose, VAS scans for security issues specific to your stack.
