  • [00:00 - 00:07] Superbase real time, powered by Alexa, brings three features into the table. Broadcast, presence and progress changes.

    [00:08 - 00:15] Imagine broadcast as your messenger, zipping short messages from one friend to another super quickly. It's like sending a quick hello with almost no waiting time.

    [00:16 - 00:22] Presence is like magic for teamwork. It helps you and your pals stay on the same page by syncing up with what everyone is doing.

    [00:23 - 00:33] It's like having a shared whiteboard where everyone can see and update the plans. And then there's progress changes. It's like having a super smart friend who keeps you updated on all the cool stuff happening on your database.

    [00:34 - 00:41] It lets you know when things changes and makes sure you are always in loop. And Superbase JavaScript library also supports these real time features.

    [00:42 - 00:46] And we can access to all these features easily. And we can implement this in our next JS app.

    [00:47 - 00:57] So in order to enable these in our two databases that we just created, we need to go to our table editor. And click on the sharing status table.

    [00:58 - 01:03] And on the top right corner, you have real time off right now. So you just click it and there's a model, you can read it.

    [01:04 - 01:08] Then you can click on enable real time. Now this table is supporting real time.

    [01:09 - 01:14] And same goes to the stories. Can click real time off.

    [01:15 - 01:23] And then again, the real time, enable real time. And now we can access data and we can sync with data that has these tables.
