Angular Projects isn't like other books on Angular – this is a project-based guide that helps budding Angular developers get hands-on experience while developing cutting-edge applications. In this updated third edition, you’ll master the essential features of the framework by creating ten different real-world web applications. Each application will demonstrate how to integrate Angular with a different library and tool, giving you a 360-degree view of what the Angular ecosystem makes possible. Updated to the newest version of Angular, the book has been revamped to keep up with the latest technologies. You’ll work on a PWA weather application, a mobile photo geotagging application, a component UI library, and other exciting projects. In doing so, you’ll implement popular technologies such as Angular Router, Scully, Electron, Angular service workers, Jamstack, NgRx, and more. By the end of this book, you will have the skills you need to build Angular apps using a variety of different technologies according to your or your client’s needs.

Storing data in Firebase

The application will be able to store photos and their location in Firebase. We will use the Storage service to upload our photos and the Cloud Firestore database to keep their location. We will further expand our application in the following tasks:

  • Creating a Firebase project
  • Integrating the AngularFire library

First, we must set up a new Firebase project for our application.

Creating a Firebase project

We can set up and configure a Firebase project using the Firebase console at https://console.firebase.google.com:

  1. Click on the Add project button to create a new Firebase project:

    Figure 6.5 – Enter the project name

    Firebase generates a unique identifier for your project, which is located underneath the project name and is used in various Firebase services.

  3. Disable Google Analytics for this project and click on the Create project button...
