SQL

The language used to read and write data in relational databases. You write queries like "SELECT all users who signed up this month" to retrieve exactly the data you need.

Even without being a developer, basic SQL knowledge lets you query your own database for insights, without waiting for an engineer to run reports for you.

A founder runs SELECT COUNT(*) FROM orders WHERE created_at > '2025-01-01' in her Supabase dashboard to instantly see January's order count.
