  Looks nice!Somewhat off topic question though: if you guys are such skilled developers to be building something as involved as this, why not just use something other than Firebase? I used Firebase mainly as a crutch when I was first getting into web dev, but feel that I’ve sorta outgrown it. Do you feel Firebase still serves developers like you well or are you developing this moreso for people like my old self?Again, nice work!

  Can this be hosted on a node and I get firebase of my own?

  This is really neat! I've been working on an open-source version of the Firebase Realtime Database as well that might be of interest[1]. Also written in Rust! Might be a good basis for building out the Realtime Database part of Firenook if you have any interest in supporting that as well.[1] https://github.com/lark-sh/lark

  Awesome, not surprised to hear that Google still neglects to improve this experience, but you called out exactly why:> [...] the only way Firebase developers can build apps without directly costing them is using the official Firebase Emulator SuiteWe had started on the management UI portion of this at my old job out of similar frustrations. Felt awful seeing what should be a small/medium sized development-only application spew forth Java flotsam.
