ReactFire

ReactJS is a framework for building large, complex user interfaces. Firebase complements it perfectly by providing an easy-to-use, realtime data source for populating the state of React components. With ReactFire, it only takes a few lines of JavaScript to integrate Firebase data into React apps via the ReactFireMixin.

Getting Started With Firebase

ReactFire requires Firebase in order to sync and store data. Firebase is a suite of integrated products designed to help you develop your app, grow your user base, and earn money. You can sign up here for a free account.

Downloading ReactFire

In order to use ReactFire in your project, you need to include the following files in your HTML:

<!-- React -->
<script src="https://fb.me/react-15.1.0.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://fb.me/react-dom-15.1.0.min.js"></script>

<!-- Firebase -->
<script src="https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/3.1.0/firebase.js"></script>

<!-- ReactFire -->
<script src="https://cdn.firebase.com/libs/reactfire/1.0.0/reactfire.min.js"></script>

You can also install ReactFire via npm or Bower. If downloading via npm, you will have to install React and Firebase separately (that is, they are peerDependencies):

$ npm install reactfire react firebase --save

On Bower, the React and Firebase dependencies will be downloaded automatically alongside ReactFire:

$ bower install reactfire --save
