About This Course

Learn to build a real time chat app and chat to friends and family

Firebase is database service that is used to provide backend functionality for applications big and small.

Firebase has three types of plans icluding a free plan that allows you real time data download and upload limits and 
also storage facilities.  Firebase on the free plan allow 100 simultaneous connections to your application.
Firebase implementation in your application means you do not need to write any backend server code. It supports both web and mobile app deployments.

In this beginner course we will be building a real time chat app  that you can deploy using firebase static hosting and share 
the link with friends and family and begin to chat provided there are only 100 simultaneous connections. If you are expecting more than 100 simultaneous connections to your app
you will have to upgrade to a paid plan.

We will be using the frontend tools like HTML ,CSS and JavaScript  to build the app's user interface and functionality and 
use firebase as the backend database server.

It was an interesting course for a cheap price. Unfortunately, some parts seem to be deprecated. Especially on the interactions with the firebase CLI, if my understanding is correct, some things have changed and the course needs an update.

Hard to tell for now. Firebase has updated it's UI so this may be outdated.

This is basic course and very helpful. Only thing is that the firebase sdk has been updated and you will have to refer the one on their website.

Short and sweet. You know its a basic little course but it did help to especially get Firebase hosting sorted out. So I now know how to host a MEAN app in firebase and also got some basic firebase training too.

Needed to play the training at 1.5x speed though. The instructor speaks sooo slooowwwly!!!
