Hey Kiwi, any chance of getting temporal.io style features for supabase edge functions? would love to have a one-stop-shop solution for all my real and not-real time needs.

(I'm assuming you want a queue/workflow engine)

Temporal has done an incredible job of ensuring there will be no side-effects (even with external systems), so I doubt we'll be able to do something as extensive as they have. That said, we will probably build a simple Postgres queue/workflow engine (similar to pgboss[0]). It will live in the Postgres database (as an extension), but will be nicely integrated with Edge Functions. We haven't started this yet, so I don't have any timelines.

have you tried Azure Durable Functions? just curious if youve evaluated all the durable workflow solutions out there and what you came away with
