## Problem The dashboard renders all timestamps in the browser's local timezone. When debugging app issues, users often want to see logs and timestamps in a different timezone (e.g. their app's deployment region) without changing their OS clock. ## Fix - New Timezone submenu in the user-avatar dropdown, sitting next to the existing Theme picker. Search-as-you-type combobox over the full IANA catalog plus an Auto detect option. - Selection persists in localStorage (`supabase-ui-timezone`) and survives `clearLocalStorage()`. No backend schema change. - New `lib/datetime.tsx` exposes pure timezone-aware formatters (`formatDateTime`, `formatDate`, `formatTime`, `formatFromNow`, `toTimezone`) plus a `TimezoneProvider` and matching React hooks (`useTimezone`, `useFormatDateTime`, ...). The pure functions take `tz` explicitly so they're easy to unit test (17 vitest cases covering DST transitions, multi-tz formatting, unix-micro/Date inputs, invalid-tz fallback). - The selected timezone propagates to every existing `<TimestampInfo>` in Studio via a new `TimestampInfoProvider` context exported from `ui-patterns`. No per-callsite changes needed for those ~20+ surfaces. - The `UnifiedLogs` date column migrates off `date-fns` to the new `useFormatDateTime` hook (the rest of the date-fns callers stay as-is, since they're either internal range math or non-display). - `ALL_TIMEZONES` (~600 entries) moves out of `PITR.constants.ts` into a shared `lib/constants/timezones.ts`. PITR keeps a re-export shim so its callers don't move. New `TIMEZONES_BY_IANA` dedupes the catalog by primary IANA name (the original list contains both PDT and PST rows for `America/Los_Angeles`, etc.) and `findTimezoneByIana` provides reverse lookup. - Telemetry: `timezone_picker_clicked` PostHog event with `previousTimezone`, `nextTimezone`, `isAutoDetected` properties. Notes for reviewers: - Bare `dayjs(x).format(...)` calls (~157 files) intentionally still render in browser-local time. Surfaces opt in by switching to the new wrappers, so this PR is the abstraction plus logs adoption; broader migration is a follow-up. - Two `// prettier-ignore` lines (`apps/studio/pages/_app.tsx`, `apps/studio/components/interfaces/UnifiedLogs/UnifiedLogs.fields.tsx`) work around a pre-existing local-tooling issue where `prettier-plugin-sql-cst` strips angle-bracket type arguments under certain conditions. Project's pinned prettier (3.8.1) does not strip; the issue surfaces with a globally-installed prettier. Worth tracking separately. - Hydration: `guessLocalTimezone()` and `useLocalStorageQuery` are client-only. Studio is mostly CSR via the Pages Router, but any SSR'd `<TimestampInfo>` may briefly render in the server's tz before client hydration. Existing behavior already had this mismatch with `.local()`; this PR does not regress it. - Backend timestamps round-tripped through query params and mutations stay UTC. The picker is display-only. ## How to test - Run `pnpm dev:studio`, sign in. - Open the user avatar dropdown (top right). Hover Timezone. - Search for "tokyo", pick `(UTC+09:00) Osaka, Sapporo, Tokyo`. - Open any project, navigate to Logs (e.g. `Project > Logs > Edge Functions`). Hover a log row's timestamp; the popover should show UTC, the chosen tz (`Asia/Tokyo`), and the relative time. Visible cell text should be in JST. - Visit any page that uses `<TimestampInfo>` (Database > Backups, Project Pause state, Edge Function details). Same tooltip should reflect Asia/Tokyo. - Refresh the page; timezone is still Asia/Tokyo. - Reopen the picker, choose Auto detect; timestamps revert to browser local. - Run `pnpm --filter studio test lib/datetime.test.ts`. 17 tests should pass. <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **New Features** * Timezone selector added to the user menu with auto-detect and manual override * App-wide timezone provider and hooks plus a shared timezone catalog for consistent timezone-aware display * Timestamp components accept an optional timezone prop and respect user preference (persisted) * **Bug Fixes / Improvements** * Logs and timestamp displays now use the new timezone formatting hooks * **Tests** * Added comprehensive datetime and timezone catalog tests * **Telemetry** * Telemetry event added for timezone picker interactions <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai -->

How it works
Supabase is a combination of open source tools. We’re building the features of Firebase using enterprise-grade, open source products. If the tools and communities exist, with an MIT, Apache 2, or equivalent open license, we will use and support that tool. If the tool doesn't exist, we build and open source it ourselves. Supabase is not a 1-to-1 mapping of Firebase. Our aim is to give developers a Firebase-like developer experience using open source tools.
Architecture
Supabase is a hosted platform. You can sign up and start using Supabase without installing anything. You can also self-host and develop locally.
- Postgres is an object-relational database system with over 30 years of active development that has earned it a strong reputation for reliability, feature robustness, and performance.
- Realtime is an Elixir server that allows you to listen to PostgreSQL inserts, updates, and deletes using websockets. Realtime polls Postgres' built-in replication functionality for database changes, converts changes to JSON, then broadcasts the JSON over websockets to authorized clients.
- PostgREST is a web server that turns your PostgreSQL database directly into a RESTful API.
- GoTrue is a JWT-based authentication API that simplifies user sign-ups, logins, and session management in your applications.
- Storage a RESTful API for managing files in S3, with Postgres handling permissions.
- pg_graphql a PostgreSQL extension that exposes a GraphQL API.
- postgres-meta is a RESTful API for managing your Postgres, allowing you to fetch tables, add roles, and run queries, etc.
- Kong is a cloud-native API gateway.
Client libraries
Our approach for client libraries is modular. Each sub-library is a standalone implementation for a single external system. This is one of the ways we support existing tools.
