After sharing Ezfire with some members of the Firebase community and asking for feedback, it was clear that users wanted to be able to try the product first before connecting their own databases. This hesitency is very understandable, and so we sought to reduce the friction users have when using our product by introducing a sample database they can query to see how the product works.
We found some CSVs of country data online and spun up our own Cloud Firestore database with this data. Better yet, we did the whole thing using infrastructure as code practices, so managing and expanding this dataset in the future will be a piece of cake. This dataset is available for everyone to try now and can be selected as part of the onboarding process.
