Firebase Insights

What is Firebase?

Firebase is a Backend-as-a-Service (BaaS) platform that provides developers with a variety of tools and services to build, manage, and grow their apps. It is commonly used for features like real-time databases, authentication, cloud storage, hosting, and cloud functions, allowing developers to focus on front-end development without managing the backend infrastructure.
