Tabbed Interface Across Supabase Dashboard

[Apoorvgarg-creator]

Hi Supabase Team,

Thanks for all the great work — Supabase keeps getting better and better!

I wanted to suggest a feature that could enhance usability across the platform: a tabbed interface within the Supabase dashboard, similar to how modern IDEs or code editors work.

Problem:

While building and debugging projects, I often need to:

Edit a database function

View table data

Check auth settings

Maybe look at storage or logs

Currently, navigating between these sections means jumping back and forth in the sidebar. If I want to compare or cross-reference things (e.g., a function and the table it affects), I often end up using multiple browser tabs, which breaks the flow.

Proposed Solution:

Introduce in-dashboard tabs for opened items (tables, functions, SQL queries, auth settings, etc.). For example:

Clicking a function opens it in a tab

Clicking a table opens that table in another tab

Tabs stay open as I work, allowing me to easily switch between views without losing my place

Bonus Ideas:

Right-click > "Open in new tab"

Option to pin frequently used tabs

Restore previously opened tabs on reload

Keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl+Tab / Cmd+Tab) for tab switching

This feature would be a huge productivity boost for anyone working on complex apps with multiple moving parts. It would reduce context switching and feel much more like a modern dev environment.

Thanks for considering this! Happy to provide more details if needed.
