Does firebase work with Firefox OS?

Question

I am trying to figure out if firebase is supported on firefox OS. I guess yes because Firefox OS Apps are built in html5 and javascript but I am not sure if there is a security restriction or something like that.

Answer 1

Firebase should definitely work.

• You will primarily be interacting with it via the REST API
• You will need to ensure that the correct permissions are present in manifest.webapp. Especially the systemXHR permission

I have written a tutorial on writing a Firefox OS App that is powered by another mBaaS : Kinvey. Conceptually things are similar and you could take a look : http://rominirani.com/2013/08/19/firefox-os-tutorial-episode-10-using-mbaas/
