Firebase is a backend-as-a-service platform that lets you move fast — but it comes with tradeoffs.
What Firebase Offers
- Realtime database and Firestore
- Auth, hosting, push, functions
- Free tier for early apps
But Consider This...
- Limited relational support
- Hard to migrate off if you grow fast
- Not ideal for complex data modeling
It’s great for MVPs — and less great for apps with long-term scale in mind. We can help you decide.
