      Hi,

      I'm interested in trying out these apps:

      https://github.com/gillkyle/sol-journal
      https://github.com/trys/JournalBook

      It says they need Firebase, Preact and IDB to work.

      https://firebase.google.com/
      https://preactjs.com/
      https://www.npmjs.com/package/idb

      Is this something that could work on Cloudron?

      Thanks!

        @humptydumpty Don't see why it should not work. It's just an external service, so you have to put firebase credentials in some config file I guess after you install the app.

          @girish I thought firebase is some kind of coding language like javascript or php. I'll read up on what it does exactly. Thanks for reply!

            @humptydumpty Ah no, it's more like a database. But also provides services authentication, messaging, analytics etc. Basically, you can start coding your app and just use firebase as the "backend" for all the services which you usually require like a database, login page etc.

              @girish Oh, okay. That sounds like google will have access to the app's data. I'll stick to the second journal app I have listed above. Thanks Girish!

                @humptydumpty Yes, using firebase indeed means that Google will have access to all the data 😕
