## Prerequisites
|
|
1. The Latest Version of Android Studio
|
|
2. Device running Android 4.0 or newer
|
|
|
|
### Connect firebase using one of this two ways:
|
|
1. Connect using Firebase Assistant in Android Studio
|
|
2. Connect firebase [using the GUI](https://developer.android.com/studio/write/firebase).
|
|
3. Connect firebase manually
|
|
|
|
The easiest way to connect to firebase is to use the firebase assistant.
|
|
|
|
#### Connecting using Firebase Assistant in Android Studio
|
|
1. Create an account in the [Firebase Console](https://console.firebase.google.com).
|
|
- Click add project to add your Android Studio project to it.
|
|
|
|
2. Install Google Repository.
|
|
- You can do this by adding the dependency into your project-level build.gradle file like this:
|
|
|
|
```java
|
|
allprojects {
|
|
repositories {
|
|
maven {
|
|
url "https://maven.google.com" // Google's Maven repository
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Connect firebase [using the GUI](https://developer.android.com/studio/write/firebase).
|
|
|
|
1. Go to Tools > Firebase and select Connect to Firebase
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Go to Tools > Firebase and select Connect to Firebase
|
|
- There are options for connecting to the realtime database, cloud messaging, authentication etc.
|
|
|
|
#### Connect to firebase [manually](https://firebase.google.com/docs/android/setup))
|
|
|
|
Having connected your Android Studio project to Firebase, you can either
|
|
1. Click on a product in the firebase assistant and get taken to the Google docs where you will be told how to proceed
|
|
2. Go to desired product in **Project Overview** in the Console and click on **Get Started**
|
|
3. Go to the [Firebase docs](https://www.firebase.com/docs/android/quickstart.html) to see how to setup individual products in your project
|
|
|
|
Reading a combination of all three will enable you to setup the product, which includes adding suitable dependencies to your build.gradle file.
|
|
|
|
**If You Encounter Gradle Sync errors**
|
|
Try To Change The Firebase-core Version or Firebase-database version
