Hello!

Does Defold currently support Firebase?

Thanks

Short answer: no.

Long answer: no, but we’ll switch from gcm to firebase for push. Perhaps other things can be implemented using a native extension?

Indeed I’d like to see that too in the future. Firebase has really cool stuff for games.

I’m integrating Firebase into a game at the moment. When completed I can probably put the code on Github. I’m essentially writing my own library using the REST API.

That sounds great! Let us know if you need any help, either with the process of public to the asset portal or with code reviews or implementation details.

Will do, I’m on holiday shortly though so it’s probably going to be in September. I’m using Reactive in my implementation too, I will remove it as a requirement in favour of callbacks - and instead provide the reactive interface separately.
