Deploys static websites, single-page apps, and simple microservices to Firebase's global CDN. Handles configuration for redirects, rewrites, headers, and preview channels. Not meant for full-stack frameworks that need SSR — that's Firebase App Hosting.
Gets a static site live on a global CDN with automatic SSL in one CLI command, skipping manual server setup and certificate management.
When to use it
- Deploying a React or Vue SPA to a production CDN with SSL
- Setting up preview URLs for pull request reviews before going live
- Adding custom redirects and rewrite rules in firebase.json
- Running a local hosting emulator to test deploy config changes
- Automating deploys to Firebase Hosting through GitHub Actions
