Become a v0 expert

Getting Started Using v0 is like chatting with a frontend engineer, who takes in your design guidelines and creates an application for you. A common workflow with v0 is putting in design files and images to scaffold your application and then use text prompts to nudge v0 into creating your perfect application. Remember, just like any other AI tool, the quality of the output that v0 generates depends on the quality of the prompt or instructions you input. So, it’s important to be clear, descripti…

Hi @adhamnor771-gmailcom, I’m not sure what you mean by that. It’d be great if you can add more information about what you are trying to achieve here using v0 and Supabase.

I recommend you to read through our How to Get Good Answers guide and add more details to your post.

Hi @adhamnor771-gmailcom, I see what you mean.

You role in the Supabase account is different than the role you get when you authenticate in your application using Supabase. They are two different things.

Now coming to what you want to achieve: there is no one correct answer to this.
If you only have two levels: you and everyone else. Then you can instruct v0 to create a function to check user email and if the email is yours, you see different UI than other users. This is the simplest way but the most naive.

You can ask v0 to create a roles table in Supabase to store the role information for all users including you. But this will be redundant at this stage as you only have two options.

You can also update the user metadata to add an additional field called “role” for each user.

Please note that these are very open ended situations for v0 or any AI to make. Hence, you need to be extremely careful to review the generated code and test thoroughly.
