The latest uWebSockets is v20.63.0.
The version is not as big of a jump as it may seem.
According to https://github.com/uNetworking/uWebSockets/releases?page=11, release 0.17.6 was followed by 18.0.0, so I think they just dropped the leading "zero dot".
I am sure that it would be non-trivial to update to the latest uWebSockets, but it may be worth updating to at least a version closer to the refactor, but preferably to the latest.
Most of the other cmake/external dependencies seem more reasonably up to date, but it would be nice to update them to as recent as possible.
Feature proposal
This SDK uses
cmake/external/uWebSockets
4d94401b
from 20170925 ~v0.14.4... which is VERY old! https://github.com/firebase/firebase-cpp-sdk/blob/b4f9e0b45d9cf69688cdb0285627aedfcc906dd9/cmake/external/uWebSockets.cmake#L21https://github.com/uNetworking/uWebSockets/tree/4d94401b9c98346f9afd838556fdc7dce30561eb
According to https://github.com/uNetworking/uWebSockets/releases?page=16, a 20170925 commit would place this code between releases v0.14.4 and v0.14.5.

0.17.6
was followed by18.0.0
, so I think they just dropped the leading "zero dot".That said, there do appear to be some fairly significant changes since v0.14.4. Most importantly, this SDK patches
src/HTTPSocket.h
andsrc/Socket.h
that no longer exists in the newer uWebSockets code. https://github.com/firebase/firebase-cpp-sdk/blob/b4f9e0b45d9cf69688cdb0285627aedfcc906dd9/scripts/git/patches/uWebSockets/0001-fix-want-write-and-sprintf-deprecation.patch It looks likesrc/HTTPSocket.h
was refactored out on 20190902, andsrc/Socket.h
on 20190910.I am sure that it would be non-trivial to update to the latest uWebSockets, but it may be worth updating to at least a version closer to the refactor, but preferably to the latest.
