Firebase

Open run-time opened this issue 10 years ago • 5 comments

Now that Google owns Firebase and with Angular integration does it make sense to add the Firebase API documentation to devdocs?

https://www.firebase.com/docs/

I'm not interested in adding commercial API docs to DevDocs, sorry.

Why does it matter if it's commercial? I think it's a popular API that many devs are using. +1 for Firebase docs

@simon04 I know this is a really old and closed issue, but could this be reconsidered?

I understand that the philosophy of devdocs might be to only list documentation of open-source tools and libraries, but Firebase is one of the most used BaaS in the world.

Now that the Firebase Emulator Suite is out, it's possible to work with Firebase without having access to the internet, the only thing that's missing is offline documentation.

Good, the docs https://firebase.google.com/docs/reference use a free license:

I'm not opposed to adding Firebase to DevDocs, but I will not write the scraper.

Someone would have to come up with a PR. To get started, see https://github.com/freeCodeCamp/devdocs/blob/main/docs/adding-docs.md
