State Sync and Serverless: Building Reactive Apps with Firebase

Synchronizing UI state with backend data often requires complex polling or websocket management. This 15-minute technical session explores an alternative: using Firebase's serverless tools to build reactive, event-driven applications.We will cover how to implement real-time data synchronization using Cloud Firestore and manage backend logic with Cloud Functions, all without managing server infrastructure.Key Takeaways:Event-Driven Architecture: Transitioning from traditional REST APIs to real-time data streams.Firestore Data Modeling: Structuring NoSQL data for efficient UI state synchronization.Cloud Functions: Handling background processing, data validation, and API integrations asynchronously.
