The amount of customization and options is just overwhelming. From security rules, cache vs. server fetch, snapshots, pending writes, realtime updates, etc. The product is not as friendly and easy to setup as it used to be before. Especially with the advent of JAMStack apps, we see the need for database solution that just work out of the box, without the need for complex setups and sophisticated solutions around it.</p> <p>I created <a href="https://abcdb.dev/">https://abcdb.dev/</a> as the solution for that problem. It's easy to use and require one click to start. Please give it a try and let me know, it has been helpful for my own JAMStack development so far 🙂 </p> jamstack webdev beginners database Obed Tandadjaja Thu, 30 Jun 2022 14:29:09 +0000 https://dev.to/obedtandadjaja/firebasefirestore-is-becoming-too-complicated-of-a-product-am-i-the-only-one-3ljj https://dev.to/obedtandadjaja/firebasefirestore-is-becoming-too-complicated-of-a-product-am-i-the-only-one-3ljj <p>Does anyone feel like Firestore is becoming too complicated for the average user? I used Firestore for my most recent project and the amount of <a href="https://firebase.google.com/docs/reference/js/firestore_">customization and options</a> is just overwhelming. From security rules, cache vs. server fetch, snapshots, pending writes, etc. The product is not as beginner-friendly as it used to be before.</p> <p>Am I the only one who feels this way?</p> webdev javascript firebase typescript
