<p>Firebase makes web application development fast and easy. It frees developers from having to build many backend services.</p> <p>In this course, you will build four different projects—ranging from creating a Serverless Web Application to displaying data from a database, building an authentication system to verify users, creating a blog that updates in real time, and finally building a chat application.</p> <p>By the end of the course, you will have learned to integrate Firebase into your application and use it as a powerful backend to create great applications by reducing the cost of backend functionalities and time spent developing applications.</p> <p>The code bundle for this course is available at:&nbsp;<a href="https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Firebase-Application-Development-Projects" target="_blank">https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Firebase-Application-Development-Projects</a></p> <h1>Style and Approach</h1> <p>The video course is organized in such a way that viewers can get the satisfaction of applying what they learn immediately while mastering practical and useful techniques for building robust Firebase applications. Each video places a heavy emphasis on trying the code out in a generic way using the browser’s developer tool console and applying it in a specific way to build an actual application.</p>
