## 💡 What's **DEFINITELY NOT** in Scope
**Clear boundaries to prevent feature creep:**
- ❌ **CLI Tools / Code Generation** → Separate projects (`supabase-cli-rs`, etc.)
- ❌ **Schema Introspection** → Database tooling, not client library
- ❌ **Migration Tools** → Database management, not client library
- ❌ **IDE Plugins** → Editor-specific projects
- ❌ **Framework Integration** → User responsibility, provide examples only
- ❌ **Additional Language Bindings** → Focus on Python + C FFI only
- ❌ **Game Engine Support** → Niche use case, not core Supabase
- ❌ **AI/ML Features** → Not basic Supabase functionality
- ❌ **Generic Offline-First** → Too complex, out of scope
- ❌ **Monitoring/APM** → Use existing solutions
- ❌ **Multi-tenant Patterns** → Application architecture, not client library
**Golden Rule**: _If it doesn't **directly** improve the experience of calling Supabase APIs from Rust - it's not our job._

## 🚀 **Focused Release Strategy**
### **Target Platforms** (Final)
```
🦀 Rust: Perfect native experience
🌐 WASM: Browser + Node.js excellence
⚙️ C FFI: Integration foundation for any language

```
**That's it. No more platforms.**
### **Success Metrics**
**v1.0 Goals:**
- ✅ **100% Supabase API Coverage**: Every feature, perfectly implemented
- ✅ **2 Target Languages**: Rust (native) + Python (mature)
- ✅ **Production Ready**: Enterprise adoption with proven stability
- ✅ **Maintainable Codebase**: Long-term sustainable development
- ✅ **Developer Happiness**: Excellent docs, examples, and DX
