angularfire
Official Angular library for Firebase that provides a natural Angular developer experience with RxJS observables and dependency injection.
What is angularfire?
AngularFire is the official Angular library for Firebase that bridges the gap between Angular and the Firebase JavaScript SDK. It wraps Firebase services to conform to Angular conventions, providing a more intuitive and productive development experience for building real-time applications. It smooths over rough edges Angular developers might face with the framework-agnostic Firebase SDK.
Angular developers building real-time applications with Firebase backend services, such as those using Firestore, Authentication, Cloud Functions, or Analytics. It is particularly suited for teams already invested in Angular's ecosystem and reactive programming patterns with RxJS.
Developers choose AngularFire because it offers idiomatic Angular integration, including dependency injection, RxJS observable-based APIs for real-time data, and seamless zone.js compatibility for features like SSR and forms. Its official status and deep integration with Angular CLI schematics for deployment provide a streamlined, framework-native experience compared to using the raw Firebase SDK.
