As a side benefit, these nodes should be a natural complement to the data explorer interface offered by the Firebase Forge and a faster/easier to use tool than diving straight into the programming libraries offered for all of the <AHREF="https://www.firebase.com/docs/">Firebase supported platforms</A>.
