Give your computes a custom name

You can now assign custom names to your branch’s computes. In the Neon Console, go to the Branches page, select a branch, and open the Compute tab. Click the edit icon next to a compute to rename it.

Naming computes

You can also set a name when adding a new compute.

This enhancement is supported for both primary (read-write) and read replica computes.

TanStack integration & new open-source tools for JavaScript developers

We're excited to announce that Neon is now the official database partner of TanStack, and that we’ve released new open-source tools to simplify Postgres integration across the TanStack and Vite ecosystems:

  • Create TanStack Add-on
    Instantly set up a fullstack application with a Neon Postgres database with one simple command: pnpm create tanstack --add-on neon

  • Instagres (formerly Neon Launchpad)
    Instantly spin up a Postgres database with Instagres; no signup required. Perfect for workshops and rapid prototyping. Try it at neon.new. Update: The URL has returned to neon.new after a period at pg.new. To learn more, see our Claimable Postgres docs.

  • neon-new (CLI)
    Bootstrap Neon Postgres database with the neon-new CLI:
    npx neon-new --yes
    Or integrate programmatically via instantNeon().

  • Vite Plugin for Neon
    Use Claimable Postgres to spin up a Postgres database with any Vite app:
    npm add -D vite-plugin-neon-new

Update: The CLI was npx neondb and the Vite plugin was @neondatabase/vite-plugin-postgres at the time of this release; they are now npx neon-new and vite-plugin-neon-new.

These open-source tools are designed to streamline fullstack development with TanStack, Vite, and Postgres. Learn more:

OAuth provider management for Neon Auth

You can now manage your project's OAuth providers (Google, GitHub, Microsoft) directly in the Neon Auth config tab: enable or disable providers, and choose between using shared Neon Auth credentials or setting up your own custom client credentials.

New API endpoints also let you manage providers programmatically:

To learn more, see the Neon Auth documentation.

Fixes
  • Addressed an issue where projects created via Netlify DB and claimed into Vercel-managed org accounts could lose certain project configuration settings. To avoid this issue, transfers of projects created via Netlify DB to Vercel-managed org accounts are currently not supported.
Neon CLI
  • The Neon CLI now supports a --name option that you can use when adding a compute or a read replica to a Neon branch.

    neon branches add-compute mybranch --name myreplica --type read_only
  • The CLI now automatically detects invalid credentials (401 responses), deletes them, and prompts for re-authentication instead of failing immediately

  • 🚀 If you're not using the Neon CLI yet, get set up in just a few steps with the Neon CLI Quickstart.
