Hi.

As a student developing a system for a friendly NGO I must say that having angularfire integrate with Angular made this an instapick because I wanted to get started asap.

The issue now is that it really feels like the docs need more examples. I'd take 4-6 hours to add a new feature and I'd spend them reading the docs. Sometimes I'm not sure if I don't get something or it's a missing feature.

I guess the community is still growing but it's really hard to find answers to some simple problems.

angularfire has an inactive gitter and there isn't one for firebase specifically. It would be really amazing if firebase devs could take some time to answer the community on gitter or something, at least at the beginning before there's more people knowing the answers.

EDIT: Found your link to the google group. I guess I'll ask there then :)

AngularFire lead here, I'd recommend you check out our GDE Jeff Delaney's community here https://angularfirebase.com for AngularFire related content. He has tutorials, lessons, and maintains a very active Slack Channel.

There's also the Firebase community Slack https://firebase.community/ and firebase-talk is our supported community channel for all things Firebase https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/firebase-talk

Thanks for the feedback. Feel free to send any feedback on missing examples/tutorials that would have made things easier to our discussion group (https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/google-cloud-firesto...). Our tech writers see the feedback and use it to help plan their work.
