The blog explains how to connect React JS And Firebase Database, which is an easy task. Firebase is a mobile and web development platform provided by Google. It offers a range of tools and services like Real-time Database, Authentication, Hosting, Cloud Functions, etc., that help developers to build, and improve applications quickly and efficiently. React.js is a JavaScript library for building user interfaces.
React.js is the most popular JavaScript library used for building user interfaces. Mostly it is used to build single-page applications. A ReactJS application contains multiple components, each component outputting a small, reusable piece of HTML code.
Below gives the steps to connect the React JS App and Firebase Database:
Add React JS application to the Firebase project:
You must first build a Firebase project and register your JavaScript app with it before you can add Firebase to your app. For this Go to the Firebase console,
- Start a new Firebase project by clicking Add Project.
- After entering a project name, press Continue.
- Click Continue on the following page.
- If you don’t have a Firebase account, select Create a new account from the dropdown menu.
- Click Create Project.
- Click Continue once the process completes.
- Click the Web icon (</>)
- Enter a nickname for your app in the provided field. Then click the Register app.
- Copy the generated code and keep it for the following step
- Click Continue to the console.
- Select Cloud Firestore Database when you need to set up a database.
- Next, click Create Database.
- Click Next. Select your preferred Firestore location from the dropdown.
- Then click Enable to create a Firestore database.
Install The Firebase Package:
- After creating the react.js application, install the Firebase package by running:
npm install firebase
- Initialize Firebase in your app and create a Firebase App object:
import { initializeApp } from 'firebase/app';
const firebaseConfig = {
apiKey: process.env.REACT_APP_apiKey,
authDomain: process.env.REACT_APP_authDomain,
projectId: process.env.REACT_APP_projectId,
storageBucket: process.env.REACT_APP_storageBucket,
messagingSenderId: process.env.REACT_APP_messagingSenderId,
appId: process.env.REACT_APP_appId,
measurementId: process.env.REACT_APP_measurementId
};
const app = initializeApp(firebaseConfig);
Let me conclude, React.js with Firebase, developers can quickly create feature-rich online applications with real-time functionality, authentication, and data persistence.
