Hello dear Hive Learner, Welcome to the 32 Lecture of android app development series. Today we will start the Firebase. It is an online database. We can store data in it. It also provides us with 1 GB of free storage enough to start the application for testing on a small group of people. Like 100-1000 People data can be stored in strings even more. We will start with the Firebase Authentication tomorrow but first, we need a connection with the firebase database,

Click on tools and click on the Firebase as shown in this mockup.
It will open a sidebar that shows all the Firebase supports. Click on the Authentication it will open a drop-down. Follow these mockup steps.
To start a new project click on the Add Project button and then set your project name.
After the loading process, you will see a continue button.
You will get a popup to connect the app click on connect.
