This is a simple journal application using Firebase as the backend service. Create, read, & update journal entries quickly & easily.
In order to setup a Firebase project, you MUST register that app at firebase.google.com. Part of that setup process is entering in YOUR app bundle (can be found in Signing and Capabilites), and dowloading a configuration file. Basically, this app will never 100% work, because you will not have access to the database that I created. But the principles are there.
- The recording from this zoom, where I show how to download CocoaPods, install the pods required for Firebase to work, can be found here.

- Also included in this project is a fun little textfield manipulation where we add some subLayers to the frame to spice it up a little. That code can be found in the
EntryDetailController
.
Sidenote - another great resource for learning Firebase is the HypeFire
project that was created by Cameron Stuart. The link to that repo is: https://github.com/DevMountain/HypeFire
I also wrote a full Notion page with screenshots and code snippets that correspond with the steps taken to get Firebase hooked up and confirm that it is working. Link:
