ASK IH: Firebase Auth + Profile + File Upload.

Hello everyone,

I am looking into building a login form, a profile with a bio, and let users upload a picture or more.

I am going to do this with Firebase and is the first time I am touching backend and Firebase.

So I was wondering if you guys have a roadmap on how to build it, or what is your approach if you have used Firebase?

Any opinions and recommendations would be really appreciated.

Thank you so much and have a great day.

    Hi Michael, I'm currently working with firebase, it's not clear from your question your exact need but in general, you should:

    1. choose the authentication type you want (phone-based, email & password, google, facebook, etc)

    2. use the simplest authentication form your use case need; in case of the web there is a google project just for that https://github.com/firebase/firebaseui-web

    3. follow the codelabs and tutorials made by google https://firebase.google.com/docs/auth

    4. use firecloud as your backend to upload photos

    5. follow the closest sample and learn from it https://firebase.google.com/docs/samples

    6. have fun ;)

    hope it helps

      Ok.My apologies.

      Well, what I want to do exactly is a login page so the users / agencies can log in into their profile, let them write a Bio and upload a image and describing the color palette and typography they had used.

      At the moment no like or upvotes system.

      It is already a big challenge for me, though.

      Thank you so much for taking your time to answer, I will have a look into those examples now.
