Firetable is a spreadsheet-like UI for Firestore.

No more building admin portals to let business users to access data from Google Cloud.

Supports fields such as images, files, single/multi select, in addition to standard fields. Functions such as row resizing, csv data import/export and much more!

Make sure you have the following installed:

• Git
• Node 10, 11, or 12
• Yarn

• Create a new project using the Firebase Console

• Create a Firestore database

• Set up Firestore Security Rules: use Test Mode or set up required permissions.

  Below are sample rules that allow for unlimited access to the entire database just for quick testing purpose:

  rules_version = '2';
  service cloud.firestore {
    match /databases/{database}/documents {
      match /{document=**} {
        allow read, write: if true;
      }
    }
  }
