It took me only a single afternoon to build a functioning dashboard for managing a volunteer delivery service using your detailed guide.
I know this is out of the scope of your post, but would you be able to point me in the right direction or share resources for achieving following:
Make the Firebase collection (spaces) sortable on change. I'm using Firebase's orderBy but that only sorts on the initial load, so I have to refresh the page to sort changes. I suppose I would have to extrapolate the Firebase data into a React state and sort/display that. Unfortunately, I'm not fully comprehending how you retrieve the collection and storing it into items because it's compounded with other variables using some sort of shorthand. So I guess my question is how to get the Firebase data into a component state?
How to dynamically paginate the collection items? That is automatically split the firebase calls and dynamically generate pages based on the total number of records and desired items-per-page.
I understand it's a lot to ask, but I'm sure any hints would help out many people in the future as well.
This example uses firestore-pagination-hook, which was useful for viewing a firestore collection quickly for this example. I'm not sure how well it scales to more complex use cases.
There are some other React + Firebase libraries out there, which I haven't tried, but you may want to check out as alternatives. This one looks popular: github.com/CSFrequency/react-fireb...
Thank you for sharing such a wonderful tutorial!

Yay, glad it was useful!

Thank you for sharing additional references. I will look through them and see where they take me.
