Hacking together a Job Runner using Supabase Edge Functions

Supabase is a collection of backend services (Postgres, PostgREST auth service, S3 storage, function runtime) that you can develop against locally and then deploy to production.

They don't yet provide a fully integrated background job running system. This post shows a detailed example of how you might keep your stack slim and build a system like this for yourself in Supabase, rather than using a third party.
