Love from our Developers
“Firebase was a breeze to set up, and it's been one of the most reliable third party services we use since we started using them for in-app chat.”
“Incredible first experience. I was able to get a completely custom, embedded chat client running in 30 mins. I really couldn't imagine how this could be easier.”
“We launched the first Firebase product about an hour ago. It looks to be going swell, with the App Dashboard lighting up like christmas!”
“Wow, loving the Firebase JS SDK. You can tell when developers really care.”
“It's certainly nice to have someone else dealing with the nightmares of real-time scaling and security so that I don't have to.”
“Firebase is the easiest way to get real-time with persistence, with just a few lines of JavaScript code.”
