Hi @longtimedeveloper! The two Firebase databases, Realtime Database and Cloud Firestore, include real-time functionality built-in. In terms of deciding which one to use, take a look at the "Choose a database" guide. If you'd like to see what the client code looks like for subscribing to realtime events, here are the docs for Realtime Database listeners and Cloud Firestore listeners. I'm not too familiar with SignalR, but if it also includes push notification functionality, you can take a look at Firebase Cloud Messaging for web. |

@jhuleatt thank you very much for your outstanding guidance. Exactly what this new Firebase developer needed. SignalR is pub/sub on a grand scale. I use it for games, now that I'm rewriting them in Flutter, I figured I needed to go with Firebase. Best to you, Karl |
