Firebase
is a mobile platform that helps you
quickly develop high-quality apps, grow your user base, and earn more money.
Firebase consists of complementary features that you can mix and match to fit
your needs, with
Google Analytics for Firebase
at
the core. You can explore and integrate Firebase services in your app directly
from Android Studio using the
Assistant
window shown in figure 1.
First, make sure you have
added Google's Maven repository
to your project configuration.
You can open and use the
Assistant
window in Android Studio by
following these steps:
- Select
Tools > Firebase
to open the
Assistant
window.
- Click to expand one of the listed features.
- Click
Get Started with Firebase Analytics
to open a tutorial that
connects you to Firebase and adds the necessary code to your app.
For more information about using Firebase services, see the
Firebase documentation
