Firebase Dynamic Link Generator

Overview

This system allows for the generation of dynamic links using the Firebase Dynamic Links API. The generated links can be used for sharing and directing users to specific content in mobile apps and on the web.

Requirements

• Node.js
• Next.js
• React
• Firebase Project with Firebase Dynamic Links enabled

Configuration

1. Firebase Project: Ensure you have a project set up in the Firebase Console and that Firebase Dynamic Links is enabled for this project.

2. API Key: Obtain the Firebase API key from the Firebase Console, which is necessary to authenticate requests to the Firebase Dynamic Links API.

3. Dynamic Link Domain: Register a dynamic link domain in the Firebase Console and configure it as needed.

4. Development Environment: Set up a .env.local file at the root of your Next.js project to store API keys and other sensitive information.

   FIREBASE_API_KEY=YOURKEY
   FIREBASE_DYNAMIC_LINK=YOUR FIREBASE DYNAMIC LINK DOMAIN
   

Example app using MongoDB
