The goal of this example is to build a more powerful authentication system in our Supabase Angular applications by leveraging RxJS Observables.
Supabase has a great tutorial that explains how to set up your Angular app to work with Supabase, but while that tutorial works with Angular, I wouldn't say it's built for angular.
When you create a new Angular app with the Angular CLI, baked-in is the powerful library, RxJS. Let's combine the ease of Supabase with the power of RxJS.
Another important addition that I will lay out is the ability to seamlessly combine a public.profiles table with your auth.users table from Supabase Auth. Many (if not most) applications need to store more data about their users than what sits in the auth.users table in your database, which is where Supabase Auth pulls from. With RxJS Observables and Supabase Realtime, any changes to our user's profile can immediately be
