#111 Michael Dowen, Serverless Computing and Getting Started with Firebase
** Summary **
Michael Dowden tells me how FlexePark build a completely serverless application with Firebase.
** Details **
Who he is, what he does. What is serverless computing, how it differs from traditional and container based computing. What Firebase is, its ecosystem ; where the business logic lives. Progressive web apps, languages you can use with Firebase. Where Firebase "lives". Why Michael chose Firebase. Storing data, real time database, cloud Firestore. Accessing other data and api's. Firebase suite of tools, authentication and authorization "oauth in 15 minutes with Firebase", using authentication by itself. Crashlytics and track.js. Configuration tools. Deploying your application, easy app rollbacks. How much it costs.
