Firebase Jumpstart (Angular University Book 4)

This book is aimed at developers that want to get a practical understanding of the Firebase Realtime Database. If you are trying to find an introduction to the Firebase and AngularFire ecosystem and would like a quick introduction to JSON Data Stores, Firebase Data Modeling, and the Firebase SDK, then this book is for you.

What is the core value proposition of this book?

Sit down in one evening with this book (this Jumpstart is condensed to 36 pages), and learn some of the key aspects of both JSON Data Stores in general and Firebase, in particular, in one read.

Get a general overview of why JSON Data Stores and Backend as a Service are both the likely future of web development, and why Firebase should be a major player in that space.

Why a Fast-track Guide to Firebase?

Firebase, with some data modeling patterns on top of it, is a great solution for building the backend of any web application in general. But right now there isn't a lot of training material available on Firebase, and especially covering things like Data Modeling.

This book could potentially spare you numerous days of overall information gathering, and give you a good overview of the Firebase ecosystem, and why and how you could use the Firebase Realtime Database in your projects.

After reading this Jumpstart, you will be in a much better position to start using Firebase and AngularFire. You will also have a solid understanding of how to make the most of a Backend as A Service platform, and you will be familiar with several JSON Data Store Data Modeling Techniques.
