I don't really understand why people say this. I'm using Firebase in my Flutter app but I've completely abstracted out the implementation into service classes. The business logic just calls my service auth, fetch data, etc... doesn't know anything about firebase. I could swap Firebase out for another provider no problem, no lock in.
- cwhiz 6y agoNo problem? Come on. The entire Firebase stack is closed source, and only available through Google. It's not like you can take your Firebase back-end and move it to Digital Ocean. If you want to go elsewhere you have to export everything, and put it somewhere else, with some other technology stack. Your idea of vendor lock is radically different than mine.
