FireBase-Realtime Database with Unity3D
An unfinished 2018 Unity3D experiment connecting to Firebase Realtime Database. The README literally says 'Not done yet' — this is a personal learning project that was never completed, not a library or starter kit anyone should build on.
Bundles the Firebase Unity SDK v5.2.1 so you don't have to track down the plugin separately. Includes DOTween, suggesting the author intended a working UI demo rather than just a bare connection test.
Abandoned mid-development — no actual chat implementation exists, just scaffolding and vendor files. Firebase Unity SDK is pinned to 5.2.1 from 2018; the current SDK is incompatible with this setup and Unity's scripting runtime has changed significantly since then. No scripts, no scenes, no documentation beyond a three-word README. Zero community traction — 1 star, no forks, no issues, no PRs.
