SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill streamlines deploying and managing modern full-stack web applications (Next.js, Angular, etc.) to Firebase App Hosting so teams can use SSR/ISR, secure secrets, and automated rollouts without manual Cloud Run wiring.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Deploy from source: Configure firebase.json and apphosting.yaml to deploy a framework-backed app using firebase-tools.
  • Secrets & permissions: Use Cloud Secret Manager integration and CLI commands to provision and grant access to secrets required at build or runtime.
  • CI/CD and rollouts: Support automated GitHub-backed deployments, manual rollouts, and backend management for staged releases.
  • Local testing: Emulate App Hosting locally with the Firebase Local Emulator Suite to validate env vars and builds before production deploys.

Quick Start

Deploy a Next.js or Angular app by adding an apphosting block to firebase.json, creating apphosting.yaml, setting required secrets with firebase-tools, and running npx -y firebase-tools@latest deploy.
