Firebase App Hosting

Google-managed Next.js SSR host

Free tier + paidHosting, deploy & edgefirebase.google.com

What it is

Google's Cloud Run-backed hosting for Next.js and Angular, with GitHub integration, server-side rendering, rollouts and native hookups to Firestore, Auth and App Check. Classic Firebase Hosting remains a free static CDN with 10 GB of storage and 360 MB of daily transfer.

Why it earns a slot

If Firestore and Firebase Auth are already your backend, App Hosting deletes the glue code — SSR, secrets and the client SDK arrive pre-wired. Classic Hosting alone is still a fine free CDN for a Vite build.

Know before you commit

Blaze has no spend cap — budget alerts notify but never stop anything, which is how Firebase earned its reputation for five-figure overnight bills. Wire the budget Pub/Sub topic to a function that calls the billing API and disables billing, and enable App Check everywhere.

Getting started

npm i -g firebase-tools && firebase init hosting && firebase deploy
