Firebase
Email Enum Protection
On Sep 15 2023 Google added additional security features to avoid login information being leaked from sign-in forms. This can potentially cause issues when doing frequent log-ins for Firebase.
As a workaround, when doing development, you can turn off this feature (just remember to turn it back on for deployment!)
Coding with AI?
Firebase Authentication involves lot of "boilerplate" code -- which means it's viable for the the copy-paste work of an AI system. Shall we try it?

NOTE: You shouldn't do this for most of your project!!
Firebase Storage
Firebase Storage is used to storing "large" files (e.g., images) that are not JSON compatible.
As of October 30 2024, Firebase only offers Storage on a "pay-as-you-go" plan. But you DO NOT need to provide credit card information for any service in this class. For workarounds, see the announcement on Ed Discussion.
