Most iPhone apps connect to some sort of backend, whether it is a video game that has game servers, a social network that keeps users connected, or an inventory system for a business. In this course, you will learn how to create a backend system for your iOS apps using Firebase.
We’ll begin first by learning about CocoaPods. CocoaPods allow us to bring other people’s code into our project. We will need this in order to get Firebase code into our project. Then we will start the course project: creating a simple version of SnapChat. Doing this will allow us to learn the ins and outs of Firebase.
After installing Firebase, you’ll move on to learn how to build our social network one step at a time. First, you’ll master user account creation and user authentication. Then you’ll create snaps to send to other users. Throughout all this, you’ll learn about Firebase’s database, storage, and authentication system.

David Bishop –
The instructor is knowledgable and clear about what he’s doing.
Bob Esponjoso –
Enjoyable course that overall is a very basic introduction to Firebase and the instructor does keep things moving along. Deducted a star for the pyramid of doom in the viewsnap viewcontroller and for not logging out of Firebase even though there is a step where the logout button is added to the project app. If not logging out of Firebase was intentional, then the instructor should have explained the reasoning behind that.
Norm Murrin –
Short course, gets to the point.
Kuinton –
So far the course is straight to the point and useful
Eric Clymer –
Course was mostly great, I think it could have benefited from some MVC explanation (using a User Object as a class, or a Snap Object as a class). Perhaps, even Firebase calls as Class methods so they can be reused through out a larger application. Overall, great experience.

To the point, no waste of time. Lot of knowledge gained that truly would be extremely helpful. Thanks!
James McClay –
Instructor walks you through everything nice and easy, doesn’t make many assumptions other than what’s written in the course overview, such as basic knowledge of Swift and Xcode.

Great course for people who are new but not complete beginners to swift! Could use some updating for new xcode versions but nothing was missing.
