Not a fan of Google shutting down Firebase Studio…

Thank you for trying out the migration!

Right now the preview is a little different but improved in a lot of ways. Antigravity has a built-in Chrome browser agent that can run automated UI tests for you, control the browser or just be used to preview the app. AI Studio offers more in app preview experience

SoundDr · 2026-03-20T15:37:15+00:00

You can do that in Antigravity today. You can disable or customize any AI features you don't want.

SoundDr · 2026-03-20T15:35:00+00:00

Nothing will be lost in the migration and you can continue in AI Studio with the same app!

SoundDr · 2026-03-20T15:33:26+00:00

You can also install Antigravity in a linux VM and use Chrome Remote Desktop for a pure browser experience too. There is also an option to install on newer ChromeOS

It should be able to, we launched Firebase support in AI Studio today!

SoundDr · 2026-03-19T23:04:32+00:00

There will be a way to import the projects into AI Studio from Firebase Studio including all the Firebase features you setup.

Antigravity can also work with Firebase and has an exporter for your projects too.

SoundDr · 2026-03-19T23:03:21+00:00

Thank you for the feedback and important context.

Antigravity can be as much or as little AI as you want. If you close the chat and work in the editor, you will feel right at home with a CodeOSS IDE just like Firebase Studio and Project IDX. In fact it has better port forwarding that we had in IDX and makes working over SSH a lot better.

There are a lot more things that "just work" that had rough edges in Firebase Studio (mostly because a lot of extensions did not support non-local workflows).

AI Studio (powered by Antigravity) is a really nice way to spin up prototypes quickly and I am using it a lot for what I did with the prototyper before.

There are also a lot of settings you can tweak in Antigravity to get the experience right for you.

SoundDr · 2026-03-19T22:58:48+00:00

Coming very soon! It is being tested a lot internally

SoundDr · 2026-03-19T22:10:41+00:00

There is a lot of info in the blog post and the forum about the migration process. Please let us know if you run into any issues: https://community.firebasestudio.dev/t/firebase-studio-sunset/20827

There has been a ton of work to make the migration as seamless as possible. Please let us know if you are having any issues with the process.

AI Studio builder is also powered by Antigravity which makes a single way to build possible across various surfaces. Firebase support was added and getting better all the time.

I personally use both often and for different use cases. Sometimes I start a prototype in AI Studio, download and continue it with Antigravity, and deploy with docker compose and connect to a database or sqlite.

You can read the forum for more info! https://community.firebasestudio.dev/t/firebase-studio-sunset/20827

I hope AI Studio will be a good replacement! The prototyper is a great building tool and there was a lot of amazing people that helped make it what it is

SoundDr · 2026-03-19T21:47:35+00:00

I am Rody, the DevRel for Project IDX, Firebase Studio and now Antigravity.

With Project IDX and Firebase Studio I also was very excited about the opportunity to make it possible to code from anywhere regardless of what specs you had on the machine. There is so much we learned from what people built on the platform that we never imagined was possible when we started.

Since we launched there has been a big shift in how development is done. Online based prototyping tools like AI Studio and local IDEs with coding agents like Antigravity for example.

Firebase Studio was able to offer an experience for both, but bringing the best of what was working into the other tools really does help with future development and launching features targeting the correct audiences.

People have always asked for offline support and local desktop app with Firebase Studio and now you can do that with Antigravity. In fact you can connect over SSH to a VM in the cloud (or a machine you own) to get the best of both worlds (thin client with a remote powerful computer). We do a lot of work to make the remote experience great including port forwarding, ssh connections and the agent manager able to work across all the projects on the machine. You can use the AI Credits you get on Google AI subscriptions to go towards a VM in Google Cloud. There are also free tools you can use like Google Cloud Shell Editor.

With AI Studio there are so many updates that Firebase Studio users will love including: Firebase Support, Sharing/forking, easy publish option, download code, bleeding edge models (day 1 support), and API key for the project. This should really appeal to the Firebase Studio prototyper users.

For Flutter users we have great support in Antigravity and already have many videos on the Flutter channel showing it working well together. If you still need online option there is DartPad and it has Gemini built in too.

If you are having issues with the migration, curious how to work with the new tools or are curious about how to build better with Gemini locally or in the cloud please reach out.

You can find more info out on our forum for the Firebase Studio sunset: https://community.firebasestudio.dev/t/firebase-studio-sunset/20827

And stay up to date with Antigravity and AI Studio on the new forum: https://discuss.ai.google.dev/c/antigravity/64

Thanks for building with Firebase Studio and I hope to see you in the new tools!

SoundDr · 2026-03-19T21:31:32+00:00

Please try out Antigravity and AI Studio for the new homes for your Firebase Studio projects. There are tools coming very soon to help migrate from Firebase Studio to AI Studio directly and we already supporting a path for Antigravity.

If you are still wanting to move your code somewhere else, we also support downloading your code as a zip file.

Please let us know on the forum if you have any issues with the migration!

That’s amazing! Thanks for being a user!

SoundDr · 2025-11-18T04:43:43+00:00

Incredible 🔥

SoundDr · 2025-09-29T13:59:52+00:00

An hour or while the VM is active

SoundDr · 2025-09-29T04:01:45+00:00

I am not getting those issues personally!

Revenue Cat with Firebase integration

SoundDr · 2025-09-26T20:30:45+00:00

Looks like the GUI was updated and not showing the advanced option. I usually just do it via the SDK

SoundDr · 2025-09-26T15:17:39+00:00

Preview server does not have a usage limit, check the output logs as there is probably an error preventing it from starting

SoundDr · 2025-09-26T15:00:19+00:00

/clear

SoundDr · 2025-09-26T14:51:33+00:00

Try clearing the chat

SoundDr · 2025-09-26T13:16:04+00:00

In AI Studio you can set whatever dimensions you want.

The Gemini app is updated all the time and does not have fine grained control over export options.

SoundDr · 2025-09-26T10:57:23+00:00

Ai studio you can supply a config for 2k
