1. 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.

2. 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 may need to switch between languages frequently, which can be time-consuming and error-prone. They may also not be able to use powerful features like Hot Reload, which can slow down development.

   Firebase should add support for the Dart language to the Admin SDK. This would make it easier for full-stack Flutter developers to build and maintain Firebase applications.

3. Support Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP) in the SDKs

   KMP is now stable and more libraries are being added to KMP ecosystem. There is a big opportunity for Firebase to be in Multiplatform and support developers adopting this tech.

4. Having pure Dart SDKs for Firebase

   Note: If your top priority is to use Flutter with Firebase on Windows/Linux, this may not be the best option.

   Currently, the Flutter SDKs (also known as FlutterFire) are wrappers around other existing SDKs, such as the iOS, Android, and web SDKs. This allows Flutter apps to target these platforms when using Firebase. However, if a Flutter app needs to target other platforms, it is not possible. A pure Dart SDK would allow developers to target all the devices that Flutter supports, but they would need to manually customize the integration with Google Analytics in Firebase. This manual integration could be a worthy investment, however.

5. Desktop (Windows, Linux, and MacOs) support for C++ and Unity SDKs

   This idea is to support desktop in production apps for the C++ SDK and Unity SDK.

   If this doesn't fit with your scenario, please leave a comment or create a specific idea.
   NOTE: There is already desktop support (for Windows and Linux) for Flutter and Dart (via the Firebase Flutter SDK) idea in user voice.
