Flash Chat

This project's goal is to learn how to integrate Firebase into our Flutter projects. To provide our app with a cloud-based NoSQL database and safe authentication techniques, we'll use Firebase Cloud Firestore and the Firebase authentication package.

This project is a part of a series of projects that I created while learning Flutter.

Check out all of my flutter projects here.

This was a part of the The Complete 2021 Flutter Development Bootcamp with Dart by Dr. Angela Yu.
