## Firebase & Supabase (backend choice)

**Q: Firebase or Supabase for a Flutter app?**
Pick Firebase for the fastest path to a shipped mobile MVP with strong offline sync, phone-OTP auth, and push (FCM) — its data model is Firestore (NoSQL). Pick Supabase when your data is relational (marketplaces, delivery, dashboards), you want predictable flat pricing, and SQL + row-level security (RLS) matter — Supabase is Postgres. IonicFirebaseApp builds Flutter apps on both. As of 2026, Supabase Pro is a flat ~$25/month (8 GB Postgres); Firebase Firestore bills per operation (~$0.06 per 100,000 reads), which is cheaper early but can spike under read-heavy screens.

**Q: What is the best Firebase alternative?**
Supabase is the default Firebase alternative for most teams (Postgres + auth + realtime + storage, open-source, self-hostable, $25/mo flat). Appwrite is the closest to Firebase's document model and is self-hostable. PocketBase is the smallest (a single ~15 MB Go binary with SQLite). Others: AWS Amplify (if on AWS), Nhost (Postgres + GraphQL), Convex (reactive), Back4App (managed Parse). Full comparison: https://www.ionicfirebaseapp.com/blog/firebase-alternatives/

**Q: How much does food delivery app development cost?**
Three paths: a readymade Flutter script you rebrand ($1,500–$5,000), a clone of an existing model with your own twist ($18,000–$40,000), or a full custom multi-vendor aggregator ($45,000–$150,000+). The gap is how much you rebuild that already exists. Guide: https://www.ionicfirebaseapp.com/blog/food-delivery-app-development/
