Support Go in Cloud Functions
Go is much more efficient than Python or Js and should be the obvious choice for backend where performance is crucial

It would feel very natural to have Go, the Google's language built for the cloud available in Google's Firebase Cloud Functions.
As it is also available in GCP Cloud Functions and Firebase Cloud Function are built on top of those I think the effort would not be very big. -

It's already supported in GCP Cloud Functions, but I agree, it would be sick to have in Cloud Functions for Firebase.

Go provides much better performance than Python or Js. And its concurrency model is the best one for backends. It would be very useful to have it as an option for Cloud Functions for Firebase.

This would be very useful for our infrastructure as Go is easier to manage, uses less resources, has better caching mechanisms, and is an easier developer experience.
