Build a Real Time Chat App with JavaScript and Firebase

Firebase is database service that is used to provide backend functionality for applications big and small.

Firebase has three types of plans icluding a free plan that allows you real time data download and upload limits and
also storage facilities. Firebase on the free plan allow 100 simultaneous connections to your application.
Firebase implementation in your application means you do not need to write any backend server code. It supports both web and mobile app deployments.

In this beginner course we will be building a real time chat app that you can deploy using firebase static hosting and share
the link with friends and family and begin to chat provided there are only 100 simultaneous connections. If you are expecting more than 100 simultaneous connections to your app
you will have to upgrade to a paid plan.

We will be using the frontend tools like HTML ,CSS and JavaScript to build the app's user interface and functionality and
use firebase as the backend database server.
