ABOUT THIS COURSE

Firebase is a unified application development platform to create, deploy, and monitor web and mobile experiences. It unites common product functions in a single platform, freeing engineers to create functionality and user experience rather than having to create the infrastructure. This course is a comprehensive introduction to the Firebase 9 SDK through hands-on development of a web application. You’ll start with basic concepts and functions like authentication, database, and Cloud Storage with Firestore. You’ll then learn Cloud Functions for Firebase, environment variables, Security Rules, and hosting capabilities before deploying an application using the command line interface (CLI). At each step, you’ll get hands-on exercises to modify the code, see real-time output in your browser, and finish with an assessment. By the end of this course, you’ll have all the tools you need to build and deploy a web application with the Firebase 9 SDK—the latest version of Firebase.

These are high-quality courses. Trust me the price is worth it for the content quality. Educative came at the right time in my career. I'm understanding topics better than with any book or online video tutorial I've done. Truly made for developers. Thanks

Just finished my first full #ML course: Machine learning for Software Engineers from Educative, Inc. ... Highly recommend!

You guys are the gold standard of crash-courses... Narrow enough that it doesn't need years of study or a full blown book to get the gist, but broad enough that an afternoon of Googling doesn't cut it.

Your courses are simply awesome, the depth they go into and the breadth of coverage is so good that I don't have to refer to 10 different websites looking for interview topics and content.
