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…825 votes -
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.

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.

Proposal for Local Deployment of Firebase Studio to Optimize Performance and Enable Offline Functionality
I recommend deploying a local instance of the Firebase Studio app to allow direct access to system resources (e.g., local files or databases), minimizing cloud dependency and network latency. This setup would enhance performance and support offline operations

Local file system access
Introduce the capability to browse and open local filesystem directories, as available in vscode.dev, where users can open directories and not just individual files, directly from the browser interface.
Current behavior in vscode.dev: Users can interact with the local filesystem through the browser, opening folders and files as if working locally, without uploading content to the server, which effectively bridges local and cloud development environments.
Impact: Implementing this would reduce context-switching and improve user experience by providing a seamless development workflow that integrates local and cloud-based resources.
Technical Suggestion: Adopt a File System Access API strategy to enable secure and…

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.

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).
321 votesWe expect previews of regionalized custom auth (passthrough IDP) by Summer, 2025, and regionalized Firebase Auth by end of 2025.

React Native implementation
It would be good to implement templates since it is another alternative to flutter. It would also be good to implement .idx/dev.nix to be automatically loaded when cloning a git repository

Working together
I think it would be so much better if we can see who is online in the project, where is their cursor, and what are their working in. Like in google docs. So we can collaborating making a project simulteneously. No need to worry about the commit and conflict.

Request for Flutter Support with iOS Simulator in IDX
Please include support for the iOS simulator within IDX for Flutter projects. This addition would greatly simplify the process of testing and debugging iOS apps directly within IDX, eliminating the need for external tools or complex setups. If iOS support is disabled, kindly provide a reason for the decision. Thank you for considering this request.

Automatic intelligent code checking
Automatic intelligent code checking. On the example of Quokka (plugin for VSCode) only that it would be interactive and automatically prompt you. For example, if you have an error in some place, it will highlight it and can solve it yourself or will describe why it happens.

Support jupyter notebooks and GPU computation
Adding support for jupyter notebooks and access to GPUs will enable deep learning and AI related developments much more easier in project idx. While Google colab and kaggle provides this, they lack a good IDE and other features. Also you can look lightning.ai studios for inspiration.

Connect to IDX from SSH, IDX VSCode Extension, or some other way
I want to connect to IDX from something other than the browser. Ideally, this could be my local VSCode instance or it could be over SSH from a terminal running neovim. I would like the power of a cloud workstation from my favorite environments.

Persist Environment Settings Across Sessions
If you customize your panels, themes, fonts, colors, and other settings, we want to ensure your customizations are persisted the next time you access Project IDX.
