OK you'll need the command `firebase` in a terminal you trust.
For most of you that will mean following these instructions for your device: Firebase CLI install
for those with terminals they like already they can do something like npm install -g firebase-tools
The setup:
1) Make a project in your dashboard (using the web browser) remember the name.
2) From the command line do firebase login
follow the instructions (you can confirm succeess with firebase projects:list
and if you see your new project you have done the first 2 successfully.)
3) Make a directory (mkdir coolprojectname
) change into that directory (cd coolprojectname
) and finally
initialize it as a firebase app using firebase init
(the menu that pops up is toggled using the spacebar)
Select the hosting option and use an existing project
select the one you just made. (If you want a single-page app adjust that setting too.)
From that same directory do firebase deploy --only hosting
It just pushed the public
directory to a CDN for you and gave you a URL for your app.
This is like the github pages in essence with just a couple of extra niceties.
Update the contents of public
redeploy and look at your new creation.
