Thanks, Prabhaav. That sounds about right. Firebase, assuming you stored passwords, can be a scary proposition. This is one of the things I'm interested in, especially. When managing passwords, you are exposing your company, right? You now have to make sure those passwords are never exposed lest you become one of the seemingly daily companies to be breached.

Justin, I think @prabhaav is saying that he is using Firebase Authentication (firebase.google.com/docs/auth), which allows the user to sign in with Google, Facebook, Twitter or Github. No need to store users' passwords.

@prabhaav , is that right?
