If I’m building a Webflow project with Memberstack, and I want to let users bookmark content, highlight text, and add comments, do I need to connect a backend like Supabase/Xano/Firebase, or can Memberstack handle those features by itself?
Thank you!

Hi Christopher,
Thanks for reaching out!
Memberstack can handle simple, per-member features like private bookmarks, highlights, or personal notes by storing that data in the member’s JSON. If you need shared/public features such as community comments, collaborative highlights, or real-time updates, you’ll want to connect a backend like Supabase, Firebase, Xano, or Airtable.
In short:
✅ Memberstack only → good for simple, private, per-user data.
⚠️ Backend required → for shared, searchable, complex or real-time features.
