Be able to run the firebase emulator in IDX
I love that i can connect to a production firebase environment, but can you make it so i can run my emulators from within IDX? i managed with the firebase-tools to setup everything but i just get an error when doing
firebase emulators:start
i emulators: Starting emulators: auth, functions, firestore

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your idea with us and for participating in our community.
Because we have officially announced the sunsetting of Firebase Studio and are currently focusing on the migration process, we are no longer accepting or implementing new feature requests for this product.
We appreciate your support and understanding as we transition to our next chapter.

@Marny did you install java from the terminal? (if so, how?) i am trying to use the emulators but it says java is not installed

I was actually able to run the emulators like this:
in `firebase.json` change the emulators to use ports that are not used by IDX
```
"auth": {
"port": 7777
},
"functions": {
"port": 7776
},
"firestore": {
"port": 7775
},
"ui": {
"enabled": true,
"port": 7774
},
```and then export the ports 1 by 1 in your terminal:
```
export port=7777
export port=7776
export port=7775
export port=7774```
and then run `firebase emulators:start` and it should start the emulators
