9.1: What is Firebase? (Database as a Service) - Programming with Text

In this video, I introduce the concept of "Database as a Service" (DBaaS). I discuss how you can store data in a web application written with client-side JavaScript only. This is the first video in a tutorial series about Firebase. This video is part of the "Programming from A to Z" ITP course.

Daniel, you're like the Bob Ross of coding.



Seriously.

Dude. I love your videos man. I started watching your videos starting this week and I have realized what I have been missing. Your video tutorials are amazing. The amount of energy and enthusiasm that you have at all times is incredible. It makes me want to get off my lazy ass and start coding works of wonder. I am actually surprised at the fact that you don't have 1 million subscribers yet. Well, in any case, I am just a rookie programmer being humbled by the stuff you make. Don't ever stop making this. Thank you :)

I've paused your video 3:45 in just to thank you. I'm currently developing an iOS app and I have a dev server running on a raspberry pi. I'm also looking (or should I say, was looking) to write a PHP framework to communicate with my server and act as the web service in between the app and the pi server. Now you've explained what things like Firebase are, it makes sense for me to use that.... why re-invent the wheel :)

Its very hard explain coding as you do it for us. Your are THE BEST teacher of coding I have ever seen. Thanks a lot for doing all the research and explaining us in a very simple manner.... :-)

[BramVanbilsen]

[kidstagram]

I was finding this kind of videos for so long !!! Finally I found it on your channel!!!

[sridharyamijala]

Content was fine and well explained. Just need to control your hand gestures and excitement a little bit.

[edivaldoluisbonfim]

thank you for the time, and information

[JordanShackelford]

I think it'd be a cool idea to take something like the snake game you already made and port it to a client/server model with node/socket.io so it can be multiplayer

[edoardogribaldo]

great video, thank you for the clear explanation!!!

[allandev]

The dancing at the end of the video made my day :)

Would be nice to have a video about the server deployment of a node.js app
