I've read so many times that you should solve your own problem, and so last week I sat down to think about all the problems in my life.
It turned out that I had quite a few problems worth solving, and the most interesting one led me to the idea for RefiApp!

When I first working with FireStore I faced many issues
- How can I filter documents by some criteria?
- How can I insert a new document from a JSON, in fact, I have to write a script to insert some new documents
- I have to use GC Storage to backup the data, which I need to spend more time learning about. WTF 🤬 why not just export and import by a JSON file?
- If I edit the same field of many documents, I need to go through documents and documents to edit.
For that reason, I write Refi App

The UX firebase provide for Firestore is terrible, I accidentally drop my whole collection since I just want to delete the documents. My colleagues do the same thing as me. So I think, this should be better
