Create a Firebase Project¶

To enable features like authentication, analytics, or remote config in your app, you’ll need to create a Firebase project and link both your Android and iOS apps to it.

Steps to get started¶

Go to the Firebase Console
Visit https://console.firebase.google.com and sign in with your Google account.
Create a new project
Click “Add project” and follow the steps. Make sure to enable Google Analytics.

Add your Android app¶

In your new Firebase project, click “Add app” and choose the Android icon.
Enter your app’s package name (e.g. com.example.myapp) — this must match your actual Android package.
Download the google-services.json file and place it in:
```
androidApp/app/google-services.json
```
This will replace the placeholder file already in that location.

Add your iOS app¶

Still in the Firebase Console, click “Add app” and choose the iOS icon.
Enter your iOS app’s bundle ID (e.g. com.example.myapp) — this must match exactly.
Download the GoogleService-Info.plist file and place it in:
```
iosApp/GoogleService-Info.plist
```
This will replace the placeholder file already included in the project.
