I really like the way you talk and explain in your videos. Usually... 25 minutes of video of someone talking about how to code makes me feel sleepy, but with you, I didn't notice the time until you concluded the video.
After manually deploying mongodb and facing nodejs server side hosting issues I cannot believe that firebase makes it so simple. Really is this even real?! I can't believe it! Thank you to the devs who devved a thing to dev faster!
Right now Firebase is in SDK version 9 which apparently makes the API more modular and less namespaced. This will make any verion 9 code look very different from the video's and made me a bit confused in the beggining... But you can still follow the tutorial as long as you have the Firebase documentation side by side to catch the differences. A bit outdated, but still great tutorial!
Hey man, I really appreciate your videos. They're very informative and I've been happy to follow along. Thank you for posting these and helping us all code a little better together. Cheers! 🔥
Be aware that this won't work with the Firebase modular (v9 and onwards) SDK: you don't get a firebase object globally available anymore, which was the case in the older Firebase "namespaced" (v8 and earlier) SDK. Instead, you import individual functions that you need from the Firebase SDKs.
Yeah, noticed that. How can i deal with this? I am a JS and in general a Web beginner. how can i access these objects and functions outside the script where i imported all these scripts?
I still didn't find the drawbacks of firebase, am I missing it or is it just actually so good? The only thing I found is that we will be so attached with Firebase on our production, if one day they suddenly change their policies or pricing that are not suitable with our business, it would be a real pain to migrate all of the code to a new service or just to deploy it on premise
from what ive heard in the past (may have changed, haven't checked recently) firebase has a generous free tier but expensive pricing as your app scales up. therefore its good for hobby/personal projects but for projects that need to be able to be scaled extensively, relying on other services (ie. aws) is preferable
Firebase is way too expensive at scale and the Firestore support for higher logic queries is just not existing. So if you rely on some logic to aggregate your data or have heavy read/write loads, it's just not as good.
I was almost daily checking ur channel in case i missed a new video... it feels really good to see u back . Great video so far, keep up the good work ❤
Anyway, Jeff, you have become my favorite tutor on RUclips. You are event better than Traversy Media right now since the content quality dropped by random contributors by a lot :-/. Keep it going!
hello, this video is 2 years old, I want to follow this because it's clear and concise. I was wondering if most topics covered here about Firbase are still applicable?
Thank you Jeff for an excellent comprehensive beginner tutorial on Firebase and it is good to see you back. I just wondered the other day where you had got to!
I'm late replying to your comment, but I just released a video version of this awesome tutorial with Firebase 9... ruclips.net/video/YPgb7g8is2w/видео.html
Great to see you back buddy! Loved the in depth video you made about firebase. Would be waiting for a React tutorial by you, since I really like your youtube videos.
If you put this dude on 0.75 speed, It sounds just as normal as any other tutorial. And if someone has an issue with serverTimestamp, correct syntax is "firebase.firestore.FieldValue.serverTimestamp()"
Thank you for this awesome explanation ,I was following step by step but I couldn't find the available libraries !! I wonder where I can find those links to apply them in my app
I am curious, how does having your own VPS or dedicated server compare to having your app be on services like Firebase? What are the pros and cons of either?
If you have your own VPS that means you have to maintain it (update nodejs update Nginx and other software) you will also need to maintain your DB if you host that there. Besides that, you will need to scale it when it gets more traffic, buy more CPU power add more ram, etc if you decide to scale vertically. With Firebase you don't have to take care of any of that. I will think the main disadvantage it cost more when you scale with firebase (but at the beginning, it will likely be cheaper even free), and also you don't have control of the software of your own server (in the vps you can use whatever you want, node PHP, MySQL Mongo, in Firebase you are stuck with Firestore etc).
Having your own server or VM gives you virually full flexibility in terms of technology at the cost of having to design and maintain all of it yourself. With Firebase, both scaling up and scaling down is handled for you automatically, which can be cheaper if the load is relatively small compared to your stack specs and more expensive if you are using your servers efficiently, which can be hard.
**video ideas for you** react + firebase full mini project tutorial redux in 100 seconds firebase storage in 100 seconds docker in 100 seconds (probably already on your list) csv (comma seperated values) in 100 seconds sass (the scss syntax) in 100 seconds firebase analytics tutorial how u make such good thumbnails tutorial **very important** how u edit so well **also very important** microsoft excel in 100 seconds google charts tutorial more typescript stuff **also very important** hope this helps :D i gave up and thought ud never come back. thank god
5:32 I just get two errors. "Uncaught TypeError: Failed to resolve module specifier "firebase/auth". Relative references must start with either "/", "./", or "../"." and "Uncaught ReferenceError: firebase is not defined at app.js:1:13" I don't know why this is. Maybe "firebase" isn't a global variable? If this is so, how do I make it a global variable?
can we please get a newer version of this? there's so many errors popping up and i cant seem to fix it. "firebase is not defined" keeps popping up when u say to console.log(firebase)
Thank you for another great tutorial, I was really excited about this one but, at 4:39 you follow the link to install the SDKs from the CDN but Google appears to have changed the layout of their documentation and now I'm going in circles trying to get it working. I can't figure out how to install the scripts needed to continue the tutorial. Can anyone offer any help? Thank you.
Another outstanding video! Thanks a million. Would you be able to do a video on cookies: what cookies Firebase requires, how to allow users to configure their preferences, how to prevent them being set before user consents (European law), what cookies Facebook uses for Facebook login, etc.
Awesome tutorial, thanks for creating this. I just followed it through entirely and the only issue was serverTimestamp() was undefined. Otherwise everything else works as expected.
Thank you for making these videos. I hope you can make a video about a 2-tier project (Front-end with Amplify-auth & backend of Node with Amplify-api) or using Firebase.
This is probably a pretty dumb question but why do you place all the scripts in the head? According to firebase documentation you are supposed to put them in the body. Short explanation would be nice. Thanks for the great content.
Feels good to be back!
Bro teach me Scraping with node.js
Welcome back
Feels really good, to be honest!
Yep it does!
Finally, I've been waiting for you. I hope you and your family are good.
we need a tutorial about how you edit these videos, sick 🔥
+1 been waiting for that
+1 waiting too

Please do what this guy requests, we really wanna know
I would absolutely love that. I want to make a programming channel but in Spanish.
Thanks a lot for the introduction. It took me 5 hours to do your 25 minutes tutorial. :)
The first 30 seconds of the video sums up everything i have been struggling with in the last months for my teams start-up. So well put!
Been stalking your github commit history in anticipation for another video 😂 Glad to have a fix!

This video is what finally helped me wrap my head around firebase, thanks so much for providing such a great resource:)
Can you please consider making an updated version of the video? A lot has changed
I still didn't find the drawbacks of firebase, am I missing it or is it just actually so good?

On reason of many, having it's own server is just a question of security, some companies that have very sensitive data , will not opt for firebase
from what ive heard in the past (may have changed, haven't checked recently) firebase has a generous free tier but expensive pricing as your app scales up. therefore its good for hobby/personal projects but for projects that need to be able to be scaled extensively, relying on other services (ie. aws) is preferable

the way you code, like, the style of the code itself, its a piece of art. Thank you for the tutorial
You are literally the best channel for tutorials on stuff, thank you!
Impeccable timing, man. Just when I'm trying to learn firebase.
I was almost daily checking ur channel in case i missed a new video... it feels really good to see u back .
Great video so far, keep up the good work ❤
You made me realize how easy it is to make a full stack application with Firebase. I'm excited with what I can do with that knowledge. Thanks c:
This might be my favorite channel on RUclips! I love EVERYTHING about it! Thanks Jeff!
Crisp. Informative. Comprehensive. Great video, Fireship!
Anyway, Jeff, you have become my favorite tutor on RUclips. You are event better than Traversy Media right now since the content quality dropped by random contributors by a lot :-/. Keep it going!
Thanks
Awesome video on the basics of Firebase. The source code in the description was also helpful!
that's amazing!! strongly recommend this video for everyone who want to teach firebase

Thank you Jeff for an excellent comprehensive beginner tutorial on Firebase and it is good to see you back. I just wondered the other day where you had got to!
Loved it! Can't wait for the Flutter-Firebase one!
learned a ton in a short period of time, this is what I need!
Thanks a lot - your videos more clear than original firebase documentation. Thumbs up!
Dope tutorial, thank you so much ! I was going to waste a lot of time implementing my regular nodejs jwt authentication !
I had 0.1% belief that your video will be the 1 notification in my notifcation box.
if I am a Traffic cop, I would be giving a ticket to you for speeding :) good tutorial
I hate traffic cops!
Can't wait for Firebase with React :)
this would be too dope! Next + Firebase by fireship! 🔥🔥
Easy man
Thank you, this couldnt have come at a more perfect time... working on a React app and I'm going to use Firebase for the backend
same
Welcome back, more tutorial about firebase, storage, function, etc , thanks
Welcome back!
Cant wait to see those intro-videos you've mentioned!
AGREED! @Fireship - Did any of those ever get done?? Specifically "Firebase with Svelte"?? I can't seem to find them. 😞
Can we have a new version of this video for firebase 9? 🥺
I'm late replying to your comment, but I just released a video version of this awesome tutorial with Firebase 9...

Your thumbnails for all videos are awesome
The only tutorial that i can enjoy
This channel has one of the best quality content 🏆
An update for Firebase 9 and using the recommended javascript modules would be cool... Thanks for the tutorial.
AGREED - the code is severely outdated. TWO hours later, and I am still only at 5:40. 😖
The legend returns!!
Thank you for this awesome explanation ,I was following step by step but I couldn't find the available libraries !! I wonder where I can find those links to apply them in my app
Thanks for great content! Please make one about React - Firebase 🔥
I was missing your videos 😀.
WELCOME BACK! 🔥
This needs a serious update with version 9 sdk.
Right? Are you coming from one of his paid courses too?
This has been one day that Firebase and Fireship have knee-capped out of the gate for me...
We need a new version of this. Everything doesn't work like this anymore.
I just made an updated video of this awesome Firebase tutorial there if it can help

A couple weeks ago your videos on firebase helped a lot. Can you make a video on firebase storage . And a video for firebase with express.
This is a great video and it's straight to the point.
OMG I built instab.io in under 2 weeks with your awesome product 🙌🔥🙌
Really amazing content in just 25 minutes 🔥🔥 feeling good to find your channel🤩
You make concepts so easy to understand. Thanks for making videos! 😁👍
This is exactly the help I needed, thanks man. 💯
Ok this is it, I'm taking the plunge and moving my API project to Firebase
Awesome tutorial, thanks for creating this. I just followed it through entirely and the only issue was serverTimestamp() was undefined. Otherwise everything else works as expected.
4:02 they are showing different code. I don't see things in it.
Can't wait to see the vue firebase vid! Hopefully with vuex too!
Works great with react native as well
I'm glad that you're back :)
Ah still the best tutorials on RUclips and more, awesome
That 90's style 😍
Firebase look sick, but I understood that it was linked to Google (server-side), does it come with some privacy problems ?
@@szymex8341 Ok so it's a big no for me

YAY you're back!
I was waiting for a video for a very long time since you didn't uploaded any video for a long time
This is very timely for a project I am working on! Thank you! Will be waiting on the Firebase for Flutter video(s?)
This is probably a pretty dumb question but why do you place all the scripts in the head?
According to firebase documentation you are supposed to put them in the body.
Short explanation would be nice. Thanks for the great content.
Awesome video, Jeff! Thank you for this!
Firebase can get quite expensive, I suggest using Appwrite which is pretty easy to host on your own server
Thanks a lot man, u ar an amazing teacher!!!
Back at it again with a straight banger
