Why bring Netlify into this when you can just use firebase static hosting? You're already using firebase...

I choose Netlify because of it's powerful features, such as built in CI/CD and Slack integration without any line of code. With all of my technologies, I almost focus on Frontend, backend should don't take much effort.

I have a similar focus but I'm too lazy to setup netlify and I don't use any of those other CI/CD features because my projects are basically just hobby projects.

Haha my project is personal also. But because I'm lazy, I choose Netlify.
Everytime I push code into my develop branch, Netlify automatically build and deploy for you. That's the basic CI/CD I think we need for every project.

I disagree. My "CI/CD" is simply running:

yarn build
yarn deploy

Under the hood those map to firebase commands. But this is a thing about which reasonable people can disagree.

I see. Firebase CLI and GCP is also a good way for modern CI/CD. Everything has its own pros and cons. I have used both and depend on situation, I'll choose the right solution for.
