Firebase ​

I like the real time aspect of Firebase but not sure how well it can scale for more complex use cases. Some say it's not that great.

OSS apps ​

• Converational Voice Capture app - Create spaces for real-time audio conversations. Record data. Includes web app and admin interface.

Notes ​

• Firebase can sometimes not sync data properly.
• Firebase seamlessly integrates with GCP. It's easy to spin up a postgres DB on Google Cloud SQL and then access that DB from a Firebase Function. While it can get confusing sometimes, I think Firebase has done a good job "overlaying" their functionality set on top of GCP infrastructure, e.g. "Cloud Functions for Firebase" is really just a very thin layer on top of GCP Cloud Functions, Firebase Auth is basically the same thing as Google Identity Platform, etc
