Key Takeaways

How to connect Superbase with VS Code? So, when your development environment selects native database awareness, you're basically writing code completely blind. Today, I'm going to show you how to deploy the official Superbase extension to map your backend schema straight into Visual Studio Code. Okay, so firstly, open your VS Code editor, of course. Head over to the extension marketplace icon on your left side bar, which is right here. Uh search for Superbase. Let's type right in. Just type in super. And there you go, we have the Superbase right at the very top. And in here, just click on install. Okay. Trust publisher and install. After that, guys, in the Superbase, you choose your project.
