Broo!!! This is absolutely awesome! As an absolute beginner, I've been struggling over a very easy problem for days and your video was a total saver for me! No water, clear for ANY level explanations and obvious expertise. You cannot even imagine how much I appreciate you and this video. Really. If you had a course in React I would buy it right away because you have just sold me all your skills. Please keep it up, even though it is hard to find motivation sometime, it is totally worth it!!!

genuinely blew my mind that i didn’t have to use the janky firebase dev channels for testing, brilliant guide.

Everything works. GREAT! This shows again to me, that it's better to find the right tutorial than to try to fix errors in "bad" tutorials. I first followed the official firebase functions tutorial from firebase but due to version updates etc. I had to fix 7 errors and in the end it was not working. This tutorial worked immediately, you're a hero!

at 0:52 why do we have to install firebase tools as a global npm install process? why can't we contain all of this within a single project directory?

[rivuosj]

It's absurd that this guide isn't published by Firebase themselves.
