How to delete all the data from your Firestore database

Sometimes when you're developing a new application, it might be useful to just have an easy way to wipe out your entire database as you're just trying out a few things.

If you're using Google's Cloud Firestore database, there is no option for doing so in the web console. However, you can do it using it the Firebase CLI:

firebase firestore:delete --all-collections -y
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

This command will delete your entire database. So, before you run it, make sure that's what you really want to do.
