Firebase & AngularJS Starter Pack

Firebase is a scalable realtime backend that lets you build apps fast without managing servers.

Introduction

This starter pack is for anyone building a web app with Angular and Firebase. Firebase's realtime data store works well with Angular's two-way data binding and content rendering. This repository includes example applications that use some of the common patterns and best practices for integrating the two technologies.

We recommend taking the tutorial on both Firebase and AngularJS before proceeding.

There are three key benefits to using Firebase as a backend for your Angular app:

No backend code required

Since Firebase is a hosted service, your app can use the Firebase JS library to talk to the Firebase servers directly in order to store and retrieve data. In combination with our flexible security rules, this means you don't need any backend code at all to write a production ready web app.

Realtime by default

Firebase is a realtime data store, which means all data synchronized via the service changes in realtime. When a change occurs on one of your clients, the change propogates to all other clients using your app nearly instantly. This makes Firebase ideal for collaborative web apps where data changes frequently.

Authentication

Firebase provides a Simple Login service to add authentication to your app via Facebook, Github, Persona, Twitter, or email / password login.

Example Projects
