I had the same feeling when I was reading that page for the first time.
Nodejs is meant as a server side and web as a client side. You can install firebase package via npm, no problem with that.
If window and document objects are available in runtime you are in web mode. But if you are trying to run nodejs express server and to track analytic event on some http patch method to your server it won't work.
My apologize, I don't understand. In ur article, you give that example :
import * as firebase from "firebase/app";
import "firebase/analytics";
// put this after firebase.initializeApp(...)
// make sure it executes before any logEvent
firebase.analytics();
// alias
Vue.prototype.$analytics = firebase.analytics();
When I try this on my project I have this error:
This dependency was not found:
* firebase/analytics in ./node_modules/cache-loader/dist/cjs.js??ref--12-0!./node_modules/babel-loader/lib!./node_modules/vuetify-loader/lib/loader.js??ref--18-0!./node_modules/cache-loader/dist/cjs.js??ref--0-0!./node_modules/vue-loader/lib??vue-loader-options!./src/components/NavBar.vue?vue&type=script&lang=js&
To install it, you can run: npm install --save firebase/analytics
Even if i did a npm install firebase
So what should I do to set forebase/analytics in my nodejs/vuejs project ?
I updated the setup section with step by step commands to setup vue app. I executed it step by step and checked that it works. Let me know if it works for you.

Refer to official firebase documentation and firebase analytics
Thanks for ur reply. But when i go here : firebase.google.com/docs/web/setup...

Am I wrong ?

Have you initialized firebase?
Yes. Error comes on the second line with :
Can you share a project where this works ?

Sorry,
I still have the same problem importing firebase/analytics
if you have time to check : github.com/tibetoine/friends-party
Please follow updated setup section from the beginning. I added also versions and package.json for comparison.
In your project you only need to update firebase version, the one you use is too old and doesn't have analytics. Go to package.json and update it to:
