Neon is a serverless Postgres platform that separates compute and storage to offer autoscaling, branching, instant restore, and scale-to-zero. It's fully compatible with Postgres and works with any language, framework, or ORM that supports Postgres.
Use this skill when:
Always reference the Neon documentation before making Neon-related claims. The documentation is the source of truth for all Neon-related information.
Below you'll find a list of resources organized by area of concern. This is meant to support you find the right documentation pages to fetch and add a bit of additonal context.
You can use the curl commands to fetch the documentation page as markdown:
Documentation:
# Get list of all Neon docs
curl https://neon.com/llms.txt
# Fetch any doc page as markdown
curl -H "Accept: text/markdown" https://neon.com/docs/<path>
