Build better mobile apps
Firebase is Google’s mobile development platform, designed to help start-ups build and grow apps for Android, iOS and the web. With Firebase, start-ups get all app solutions in one place and can move faster by focusing on users instead of infrastructure.
“As we build things, our goal isn’t to strive for the highest number of visitors, registrations, or daily active users. It’s to have a product that works well and gets out of your way as quickly as possible.”
