Firebase: Then next is to get the best cloud storage service for our mobile applications development. Since we are native developers using Java and Android, we will be using Firebase. Firebase was acquired by the Tech Giant ‘Google’ and hence it has a lot of cool features. To use Firebase, we will need knowledge on how to create a DB using Firebase. And for that, we will learn and have some basic knowledge of JSON (JSON stands for JavaScript Object Notation. JSON is a lightweight format for storing and transporting data), by which we can structure our database table for the responses from the server.
You can learn about JSON here on the sing w3schools web page. JSON will help you with REST API and other mobile app integrations from third parties into your mobile app for use. Learning Firebase alongside JSON can take you another 15 days to finish.
