which data store approach would you recommend?

Hello there! I want to create a very minimalistic Nuxt app for a very simple ( and private ) usecase.

For this I would like to use a free tier hosting ( e.g. Vercel ) and a free tier database ( e.g. Supabase )

AFAIK Vercel is not able to host a full Docker setup with additional databases etc. so I thought Supabase would do the trick.

My database requirements are very simple, for now ( and in the future ) I think I only need 3 tables with approx 5 text columns each. Maybe a basic KV data store would be sufficient but a relational database is a better fit ( delete cascade and so on )

So for now: Do you have any better ideas or should I go for Vercel + Supabase?

I have never tried Nuxthub before, it looks like it's framework agnostic now. Should I use it with Drizzle? Or is Nuxthub the wrong tool / overkill and I should simply go for Drizzle and connect to the PG DB directly?

I'm a "frontend world" newbie, thanks for all the help guys!
