Figured out how to automate building AND uploading to Test Flight for my Expo app 🚀

I just run `npm run build:tf` and it calls these two scripts

I'm looking to build a service that RECEIVES emails and parses the contents. Any recommendations on services I can use to streamline this?

Would rather not setup a mail server myself lol

What're your favorite AI coding tools?

AI is a great coding companion, but you still need to put in the reps if you want to keep your skills sharp.

Use it for the tool it is and dont let it become a crutch!

This is all going to proceed a hands on demo of adding the integration to a project just to see it in action.

Debating if I should include B2B stuff in this video or in a separate one.

Anything else I should add?

Finally I'm going to highlight authorization with Supabase and Clerk and how RLS is used to prevent the user from accessing data they shouldnt have access to, along with some key requirements to make Supabase and Clerk work together.

Next I got a section comparing the traditional approach with how Supabase works and how Supabase verifies JWTs with Clerk using the JWKS endpoint

Working on a video that outlines the new Clerk & Supabase integration and how the whole thing works. Looking for feedback 🤗

First few slides walk through how a typical multi-tier application works, both independently and with Clerk.

My morning routine:

8:00 am - Wake up
8:30 am - Grab a brush and put on a little makeup
9:00 am - Hide the scars to fade away the shake-up
9:30 am - Ask myself "Why'd you leave the keys upon the table?"
10:00 am - Go create another fable (I wanted to)

I'll have more to share about this integration as the week progresses, but if you have any questions about how things work, drop me a note below or in my DMs!
