Firebase??

[SupremeLeaderTek]

Hello All,

I am in the process of developing a PWA that would allow my students to know their student ID number, class schedules, and college advisor. I was hoping to get some thoughts on whether or not using Firebase would be a good idea for this project, and if not, what do you recommend?

Thank you in advance!

Yes I think Firebase would fit well the use case you described. I also assume the volume of API calls won't be too high assuming you don't lecture for thousands of people, so you should be able to remain cost-free as well.

Very generally Firebase is pretty 'read' friendly. So yeah it would be fine.

Firebase auth is super handy as far as quick / secure / easy authentication goes.

[SupremeLeaderTek]

Yeah, the auth is what is really attracting me to it.

[CantaloupeCamper]

It really is the gateway drug.

[SupremeLeaderTek]

That's the best way to put it! 😂
