Figma

Figma deserves a special thank you for helping us bring the visual identity of Oasis to life. Figma’s Dev Mode and MCP have been game changing for translating our designs into a real browser interface that actually matches our vision. UI used to feel finicky and fragile for us, and we often felt like we could never quite get it right in code, no matter how good the mockups looked. With Figma, that changed. The handoff between design and development became clear, precise, and fast, so our engineers could focus on polish instead of guesswork. Being able to inspect styles, tokens, and components directly, then mirror them in our codebase, is what made it possible for us to apply our unique and carefully crafted aesthetic vision of Oasis across the entire browser interface. Because of Figma, we were finally able to fully realize the look and feel we had in our heads and on our canvases, and make it the everyday experience of using Oasis.

GitHub

It goes without saying. Huge shoutout to GitHub for being the backbone of how we build and ship Oasis. GitHub’s platform lets us host our code and collaborate across time zones and continents as if we were all in the same room. Pull requests, code reviews, and issues are where our product actually takes shape, and the speed at which we can move is directly tied to how well GitHub works for our team. From continuous integration to protecting our main branches and managing contributions from a distributed group of builders, GitHub quietly handles an enormous amount of complexity so we can focus on the hard problems in front of us. We all know GitHub has become essential infrastructure for modern software, and Oasis is no exception.

Supabase

Big shoutout to the Supabase team for being an essential part of our stack on day one. We chose Supabase as the backbone for our product because it hits the sweet spot between power and practicality. The authentication features are robust, secure, and flexible, which let us implement real world auth flows quickly without sacrificing security or spending weeks on boilerplate. It felt like production grade infrastructure that we could adopt in hours instead of days. The collaborative interface has also been a huge win for our team. The dashboard makes it easy for engineers, founders, and non technical teammates to explore data, adjust schemas, and understand what is happening in the product. It feels like a database platform designed for modern teams, not just database administrators. As an early stage company, the generous free tier gave us the breathing room to experiment, iterate, and validate without constantly worrying about cost. At the same time, it never felt like a toy environment. We were comfortable building features that we knew would carry forward as we scale. Edge Functions have been a game changer for us. Being able to run server side logic close to the user, tightly integrated with our database, simplified our architecture and improved performance. It let us ship features faster with less infrastructure overhead. Supabase has been the perfect database platform to get up and running quickly while giving us a clear path to scale as our product and user base grow.
