# Prerequisites
 | 
						|
1. The Latest Version of Android Studio
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<br>
 | 
						|
The easiest way to connect to firebase is to use the firebase assistant. 
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
# 1. Connecting using Firebase Assistant
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
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
 | 
						|
        }
 | 
						|
    }
 | 
						|
}
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Alternatively, you could do that [using the GUI](https://developer.android.com/studio/write/firebase). 
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
3. Go to Tools > Firebase and select Connect to Firebase
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If you wish to connect to firebase manually, detailed instructions are available [here](https://firebase.google.com/docs/android/setup). 
 | 
						|
<br>
 | 
						|
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**
 | 
						|
Try To Change The Firebase-core Version or Firebase-database version
 |
