In this article, we will talk about Firebase Authentication and make an sample app using Firebase Authentication in Kotlin.
What is Firebase and Firebase Authentication?
Firebase is Google’s mobile platform that helps you develop high-quality apps and provides hosted backend services such as a realtime database, cloud storage, authentication, crash reporting.
Firebase Authentication helps you verify the user identity in your app. Supports authentication by passwords, phone numbers, Google, Facebook and Twitter, and more.
Let’s see how we can use Firebase Authentication in our app.
Step 1
Create a new project in Android Studio.
Step 2
Add Firebase to your Android project.
Today, we will talk about the role of commit messages and how to write good commit messages.
“A commit message shows whether a developer is a good collaborator.”

In this tutorial we will retrieve json data in Flutter using HTTP package.
What does HTTP package do?
The HTTP package is used to retrieve data from the internet.
In this example, we will list the Breaking Bad characters on the screen.
Step 1
Create a Flutter project.
Step 2
Go to pubspec.yaml file and add http package under dependencies. (You can find the package here.)
Step 3
Create a model folder under the lib folder to keep data. Then open a file named character.dart under the model folder.
First, open a Character class in this file and add the required properties: id, name, img and nickname.
Then, use the…

XD to Flutter plugin generate code for building apps with Flutter based on your designs in Adobe XD. Thanks to the XD to Flutter plugin, you can easily transfer the design you create in Adobe XD to widgets and save time.
Let’s see how we can use “XD to Flutter” plugin in an existing Flutter project.

The most important point in Unit Testing, is not to create test cases for everything but to focus on the tests that affect the behavior of the system.
What are the Benefits of Unit Testing?
- Improves the quality of code.
- Detects software bugs early.
- Provides more reliable and reusable code.
- Reduces cost and development time.
- Facilitates changes so speeds up the coding process.
Unit Test Frameworks
Unit Test frameworks allow unit tests to be written quickly and easily. Some of…
