A collection of links for learning about Firebase for Android.
I recently started compiling this list of resources for Firebase for Android for myself but thought it would probably help others as well. This resource is organised by Firebase features. I've been able to cover Realtime Database mostly as of now. Will get to the other features eventually. If you have some links which are not here, please contribute.
