Initialization

Before initializing, check if you are already in a Firebase project directory by looking for firebase.json.

1. Project Directory: Navigate to the root directory of the codebase. (Only if starting a completely new project from scratch without an existing codebase, create a directory first: mkdir my-project && cd my-project)

2. Initialize Services: Run the initialization command:

   npx -y firebase-tools@latest init
   

The CLI will guide you through:

• Selecting features (Firestore, Functions, Hosting, etc.).
• Associating with an existing project or creating a new one.
• Configuring files (e.g. firebase.json, .firebaserc).
