This is a simple real-time chat application built using Firebase Authentication and Firestore.
I built it mostly to use as a starting-point for other applications that have a real-time chat portion.
- Register new users
- Login with users that have registered
- Create new chatrooms
- Join chatrooms
- Chat with other users
This project will not compile and run until you have created a new Firebase project at firebase.google.com and you've added a google-services.json file to the app folder.
This is very easy to do, just follow the instructions here.
Alternatively open android studio under tools select firebase,the assistant will open-up. Click on authentication follow the instructions and google-services.json file will automatically be added to your app.
Make sure the package name you use is: 'com.codingwithmitch.firestorechatapp'.
