This uses Firebase's local development tools to test our project

Features

• Server-side rendering with Firebase Hosting combined with Firebase Functions
• Firebase Hosting as our CDN for our publicPath (See nuxt.config.js)

Things to know...

• You must have the Firebase CLI installed. If you don't have it install it with npm install -g firebase-tools and then configure it with firebase login.

• If you have errors, make sure firebase-tools is up to date. I've experienced many problems that were resolved once I updated.

• The root directory has a package.json file with several scripts that will be used to optimize and ease getting started and the workflow

• ALL commands are ran from the root directory
