What Is Firebase Hosting?

Relax. We'll talk through this in plain words — no textbook voice.

What Is Firebase Hosting?

Firebase Hosting is a service for putting a static website or frontend app online. You can deploy HTML/CSS/JS sites, Vite/React build output, Vue apps, documentation sites, and more. Since it's CDN-backed, load speeds tend to be great for your users.

  • You can connect a custom domain
  • SSL certificate included
  • Preview channels let you test a deploy before going live
  • You can add rewrite rules for single-page apps

What kinds of projects can you host?

It's great for frontend-only apps, client apps wired up to Firebase Auth/Firestore/Storage, landing pages, and docs sites. What it can't do is run server-side code like PHP/WordPress on its own.
