@mikelehen I choose you as contact: Is it possible to host an local Firebase server?

I found the following tutorial how to use Firebase. And maybe some people (like me), sitting behind stupid Proxy server or want use sharing locally, and don't want to use the official/public one.

@Fank Unfortunately it's not possible. Firebase is a cloud service and there's no way to install it locally. You can of course create your own Firebase instances though. But they'll still be hosted on our servers.

FYI- Firebase should generally work fine behind proxies unless it's exceptionally restricted. If you're having problems, I'd be curious to know about it.

Ah ok, yea currently the atom package doesn't support proxy. So ill need to focus on this too.
