Geofire example

[zugaldia]

I'm starting to see some SO questions about integration with Geofire, I think it'd make a fun example to showcase realtime location updates.

GeoFire is set of open-source libraries for JavaScript, Objective-C, and Java that allow you to store and query a set of keys based on their geographic location. At its heart, GeoFire simply stores locations with string keys. Its main benefit, however, is the possibility of retrieving only those keys within a given geographic area - all in realtime.

It could be based on this one.

@langsmith what do you think?

Cool. Hadn't heard about it until now.

We'll have to figure out which issues in this repo will be part of the next milestone after 5.1.0

Perhaps this can be part of that next milestone.
