Firebase Deployment Guide for FitForge

This guide explains how to deploy the FitForge application to Firebase Hosting as an alternative to Vercel.

Prerequisites

  • Firebase account
  • Firebase CLI installed (npm install -g firebase-tools)

Setup Steps

  1. Login to Firebase

    firebase login

  2. Create a Firebase Project

    • Go to the Firebase Console
    • Create a new project named "fitforge-app" (or your preferred name)
    • Note the project ID

  3. Update .firebaserc

    • Open .firebaserc and ensure the project ID matches your Firebase project:
    {
  "projects": {
    "default": "YOUR_PROJECT_ID"
  }
}

Deployment

Option 1: Using npm scripts

npm run deploy:firebase

This script will:

  • Build your project
  • Deploy to Firebase Hosting

Option 2: Manual deployment

npm run build
firebase deploy

Troubleshooting

  • If you encounter permission issues, ensure you're logged in with the correct Firebase account
  • If deployment fails, check the Firebase console for more detailed error messages
  • For build errors, review the build logs and fix any issues before attempting deployment again

Switching Between Vercel and Firebase

Both deployment options are configured in this project. To deploy to:

  • Vercel: Use your existing Vercel workflow
  • Firebase: Use the commands in this guide

This dual-deployment setup provides redundancy in case one platform experiences issues.
