What it is

A focused place for common Firebase admin chores.

Firestore

Query collections, inspect nested values, edit documents, and run collection jobs.

Authentication

Search users, review provider data, and edit custom claims without switching tools.

JavaScript Query

Run trusted Firebase Admin style snippets against the selected target.

Activity

Keep a local trail of queries, writes, scripts, jobs, failures, and settings changes.

Modes

Start with sample data. Move to real targets when you are ready.

Browser demo Static, mock-only, no credentials, resets on refresh.

Mock mode Local fixtures in the desktop app for learning and screenshots.

Emulator or production Explicit user setup, visible target labels, and confirmations for risky work.
