Having a self created API allows me to hook up data to connect to front end pages, so I can feed information from the API to the page. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This tutorial is CRUD tutorial with firebase firestore and functions , so another item that I’m very interested in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the video series<\/a><\/strong> where S\u00f8ren Spangsberg J\u00f8rgensen goes through the setup\/testing steps to get it running.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is something interesting that will hopefully link up with some of the Static websites, being able to have an API up and running. This is also something that I have been wanting to do for a while and have been sidetracked down a lot of paths on the way. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As I was coding from the screen I made a few mistakes and it took me two days to get up and running, but I now have an operational localhost\/postman workflow from the Tutorial. Now I need to adapt it to an expenses app. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Project process<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

I’ve setup the Firebase project, created a database (no data in it as yet)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Setup an App (no data) and used VS Studio to run a> firebase init and create a functions setup. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m now onto video 4 , having got the “Hello World” and initial test route & started the server on locval host to test. I’d done this thismorning and pushed to Github, the surface tablet had issues with linking to Github and I had to donload Git Bash on that pc and set up a new SSH key. Then I could push data to Github that I’ve now pulled on my laptop. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So on with Tut 4: This we’ll set up authentication between app and firebase firestore. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
