What is Firebase and Why is Important for our project ?
Firebase is a Baas Known as Backend-as-a-service and it has also mobile and web application development platform that provides all type of infrastructure and services in one place such as authentications,database,hosting,cloud messaging,storage,app indexing etc for your project app,web & iOS application and next generation application-development platform in Google Cloud System.
By Firebase you can develop and create any application such as web,android,iOS because all maximum required API and services are integrated in Firebase- Firebase Console System means no need to one by one enable or create every api for your project on Google Cloud System or Google Cloud API and you can also easily deploy or create your database.
In Firebase Your Application’s Backend components such as hosting,storage,databases, messaging services,authentication,etc are operated and fully maintained by Google. Google Firebase provides Client SDKs to users that helps users to directly interact with these backend services and no need to establish any middleware (connection-communication) between your app and the service.
Mainly is different from any traditional app development which in typically involves and required all frontend and backend coding and design in your application. Firebase similar as a new SDK Language Flutter and React Native JS

8.Test Lab
Google Test Lab, provides virtual & physical devices access to test your app in real enviroment and in Google’s data-centers. Google Test Lab will also support game testing too and its a cloud-based app testing infrastructure.
9.Notification
Notification can easily sent from firebase to users and no required to additional coding for send user-focused custom notifications to the users and users can get started with firebase in free.
