At my summer with google, I was able to complete two projects that were each initially scoped to be completed in a single internship. Through both of these projects, I was able to provide Firebase customers value by greatly increasing the quality of the local development experience.
In my first project, I added support for Firebase Alert Function triggers within the Firebase Emulator. I laid out design requirements that would allow for an intuitive testing experience, including automatic detection of triggers, creating an easy to use UI, and providing sensible defaults for rapid development.
In my second project, I was able to design and implement an emulator for Cloud Task Queue functions, a feature which has been long requested by Firebase users. In this project, I identified the features of Cloud Task Queues that were essential for local development, as well as pruning some of the features which did not make sense to have in an emulated environment.
Throughout both these projects, I was able to provide value to Firebase customers by easing many pain points which have been documented and requested by users.
