# 3. Firebase Setup

We have used the Firestore Database from Google as the backend for this project.

* First, Go to the [Firebase Console](https://firebase.google.com/) and sign in with your email account, and go to the console.
* Create a project by your app name. And go to the project overview.

* Input the name as **Admin Panel** and fill in the checkbox because you need hosting too and then click on register app. After that, Skip the other options by clicking next. (Don’t input a custom name for hosting else you need extra setup for this which is not recommended)
* Now go to **Project Settings**. At the bottom, Select the **Admin Panel** and copy the selected lines shown in the picture below:
