## What it is
A collection of official Firebase quickstart sample applications demonstrating the Firebase JavaScript SDK across auth, database, Firestore, Functions, Storage, and Messaging. Each sample is a small runnable web app with its own README for getting started.

## Use cases
- learn how to add Firebase authentication to a web app
- example of Google or Facebook sign-in with Firebase popup and redirect flows
- sample code for reading and writing to Cloud Firestore
- how to upload files to Firebase Storage from the browser
- getting started with Firebase Cloud Messaging web notifications
- calling Cloud Functions from a JavaScript client
- setting up Firebase in a Chrome extension

## When to choose
- you are new to Firebase and want official, runnable examples for the web SDK
- you need reference code for a specific Firebase feature like phone auth or messaging
- you want a starting template to copy into your own web project

## When to avoid
- you need a production-ready application or framework rather than demo samples
- you are building for iOS, Android, or Flutter rather than the web
- you need comprehensive documentation instead of minimal quickstart code
