Firebase Setup

This is required for push notifications.

Step 1: Create a Firebase project

• Go to Firebase Console.
• Create a new project.

Why

Bubbl uses Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) to deliver push notifications.

Step 2: Add your Android app

• Register your app using your applicationId.
• Download google-services.json.

Why

This binds your app package name to your Firebase project.

Step 3: Place the config file

• Put google-services.json in your app module root: app/google-services.json

Step 4: Enable FCM

• Ensure Cloud Messaging is enabled in Firebase.

Why

Without FCM, the SDK cannot receive push notifications.
