Support Dart in Cloud Functions
Dart is not currently supported in Cloud Functions, so developers need to use more than one language in their code base. Here are some pain points they shared with the Firebase product team about this gap:
- They need to learn another language, and many of them do not have the same expertise in JavaScript as they do in Dart.
- The lack of features and tools, such as Hot Reload and Hot Restart, impacts development speed.
- Developers cannot share business logic and data models across the entire stack.
- Developers cannot use frequently used Dart packages on the…629 votes -
Desktop (Windows, Linux, MacOs) support for Flutter apps that use Firebase in production apps
Flutter developers should be able to run their apps on desktop platforms, including Windows and Linux, when using Firebase services. For example, Flutter developers should be able to 1) apply Analytics to data from desktop platforms, 2)
use Remote Config to customize their apps for desktop users, 3) use other Firebase services that are relevant to desktop apps, etc.This would make it easier for Flutter developers to build and deploy production-ready apps for desktop platforms.

Firebase Authentication for EU
Currently, Firebase Auth is US only. Because the EU-US-Privacy-Shield is not valid anymore, transferring data to the US is for EU companies not allowed. Therefore, Firebase is not GDPR complaint. Allowing us to choose the storage location (like you can weigh Firestore or Cloud Storage) to use a data center in the EU (like europe-west1, europe-west3 or europe-west4, etc.) would make Firebase much more GDPR complaint (beside the Cloud-Act).

Support Swift in Cloud Functions
Swift is a much beloved and popular language for writing apps on the Apple platforms, but increasingly, it is also being used server side and even for writing cross platform business logic on Android and on Windows.
Being able to share models and business logic between your clients and server would be an amazing productivity boost. And being able to develop in a language that focuses on safety would eliminate categories of issues that can exist if you develop in say Javascript or Typescript.

Dart support for the Firebase's Admin SDK
Firebase has a server (backend) library called the Admin SDK, which has privileged (admin) access to some Firebase services. There are several language implementations of the Admin SDK: JavaScript/TypeScript (Node.js), Java, Python, Go, and C# (.NET). However, Firebase does not currently support the Dart language.
This is a problem for full-stack Flutter developers, who need to use both the front-end and back-end of a Firebase application. Currently, they need to use different languages for each, such as Dart for the front-end and JavaScript/TypeScript for the back-end. This can lead to decreased productivity and a worse developer experience.
For example, developers…

Make AngularFire an offcially supported library
The AngularFire library gets updated really slow so we miss out on some of the latest features. There are lots of issues that doesn't get solved and the documentation is very lacking. They are both Google products and make an awesome combination but if the library does not get enough support/resources we're forced to migrate to plain javascript firebase. Please make it an official library or something so more resources are assigned to AngularFire.

Firestore indexes in emulator
Currently, the Firestore emulator allows all queries without checking if the query requires an index. It would be great if the emulator checks the Firestore indexes file if the index exists.

Secure Transport Layer Implementation
The "Secure Transport Layer Implementation" idea centers around fortifying the application's transport layer to mitigate vulnerabilities, particularly the risk of insufficient protection against attacks like POODLE. This vulnerability exposes the application to potential exploits, compromising the confidentiality and integrity of data exchanged between the application and its users.
Insufficient transport layer protection opens the door to various security threats, including man-in-the-middle attacks, data interception, injection of malicious content, and communication redirection. These threats undermine the trustworthiness of the application and jeopardize user data security.
To address this vulnerability effectively, it's imperative to reinforce the application's transport layer security by implementing…

onDisconnect for firestore (user presence)
https://firebase.google.com/docs/firestore/solutions/presence
We have a workaround by using Realtime Database, but if you don't work realtime databases in your app, this seems inefficient and cumbersome. I'd like to see a native method for Firestore that offers this functionality. Perhaps offer a onSnapshot.disconnect hook.

Remote Config for server side
Remote Config is extremely powerful, but to have the same features for server-side feature flagging and A/B testing we have to use something like LaunchDarkly which is a. Expensive b. Another set of SDK & libraries to add to both frontend and backend.
Where Firebase provides remote config, A/B testing, and personalization with the power of Google Analytics and Google's ML capability I think it's obvious Remote config Admin SDK will provide a significant benefit. Since analytics and remote config is already used in frontend it's a no-brainer to add them to the backend and provide a seamless end-to-end user…
