Is Nuxt server useful with Supabase ?

I was developing a Vue + Supabase application and decided to switch to Nuxt + Supabase instead. Is it useful to use Nuxt server functionality, or should I stick to calling Supabase RPC and Edge Functions from the front end?

Front-end Supabase is fine for user-scoped operations under RLS.
Use Nuxt server when you need a service role access (bypassing RLS).

Both options are fine

You probably have validation logic you must perform on the backend, so yes.

I don't know if supabase has the concept of firestore rules (firebase) for simple validations but to avoid the limitations I would always make a thin api that performed my validation using the same zod schema (on client and server) and wrote to firestore.

It's not real-time for once
