How to setup firebase firestore database

To set up Firebase Firestore database, you need to create a Firebase project and enable the Firestore service.

Here are the steps on how to do it:

1. Go to the Firebase website and create a project.
2. In the Firebase console, click on the Database tab.
3. Click on the Enable button next to Firestore.
4. Once Firestore is enabled, you will be given a set of Firestore credentials.
5. You will need to add these credentials to your app in order to use Firestore.

Here are the detailed steps for each of these steps:

1. Go to the Firebase website and create a project.
2. In the Firebase console, click on the Database tab.
3. Click on the Enable button next to Firestore.
4. Once Firestore is enabled, you will be given a set of Firestore credentials.

• Project ID: This is a unique identifier for your Firebase project.
• Firestore Emulator URI: This is the URI of the Firestore emulator. You can use this to test your Firestore database locally.
• Firestore Admin SDK credentials: These are the credentials that you need to use the Firestore Admin SDK.

5. You will need to add these credentials to your app in order to use Firestore.

• For Android apps, you can add the Firestore SDKs to your app by following the instructions in the Firebase documentation: https://firebase.google.com/docs/android/setup.
• For iOS apps, you can add the Firestore SDKs to your app by following the instructions in the Firebase documentation: https://firebase.google.com/docs/ios/setup.

Once you have added the Firestore SDKs to your app, you can start using Firestore to store and retrieve data.

Here are some of the things you can do with Firestore:

• Store data in real time.
• Query data using SQL-like syntax.
• Authenticate users and control access to data.
• Encrypt data at rest and in transit.
• Back up and restore data.

If you’re looking for a scalable, reliable, and secure database for your app, Firestore is a great option.
