A Kotlin-first, multiplatform SDK for Firebase that wraps Firebase services (Auth, Firestore, Realtime Database, Functions, Analytics, Messaging, Storage, etc.) behind a common Kotlin API with coroutine support. It enables using Firebase as a backend directly from common code targeting iOS, Android, Desktop, and Web, e.g. with Compose Multiplatform.

Use cases

• use firebase from kotlin multiplatform common code
• add firebase auth to a compose multiplatform app
• read and write firestore from ios and android with shared code
• call firebase cloud functions from kotlin
• subscribe to firebase messaging topics in a multiplatform app
• log analytics events from shared kotlin code
• replace platform-specific firebase sdks with a single kotlin api

When to choose

• you are building a kotlin multiplatform or compose multiplatform app that needs a firebase backend
• you want a coroutine-friendly, idiomatic kotlin api over firebase services
• you want to share firebase integration code across ios, android, desktop, and web

When to avoid

• you only target android and can use the official firebase android sdk directly
• you need full api coverage of a firebase service, since some modules have partial coverage
• your project is not on the jvm/kotlin toolchain
