Come learn all about what's new in Firebase, looking into some of the exciting new releases such as A/B testing and Firebase Predictions. In this talk, Laurence Moroney will go through the new announcements made at the Firebase Developer Summit, and drill down into some detail about what they mean for Firebase Developers! Laurence Moroney is a Developer Advocate at Google working on Firebase and Google Maps, and author of dozens of programming books including the upcoming 'Definitive Guide to Firebase'. He's the host of the award-winning YouTube show 'Coffee With a Googler', and a regular on the Google YouTube Channels. When not Googling, he's also a published Sci-Fi novelist, comic book writer, and screenwriter, and is only too happy to geek out over this stuff. He's based in the Seattle area, and reachable at laurencemoroney.com ~ 6:00 Networking & Pizza This will be held in building A (room KIR-6THA-1-Black Stars) at Google Kirkland. When you arrive you can park in a guest parking spot by building A or building D (P1 or P2). Suggest the West entrance to the building as that's where we usually set up registration. There is easy bus service to the Google Kirkland campus as well - Metro 255, 245 and Sound Transit 540 stop here. Please note that this meetup takes place at a Google facility. This means we need to provide building security with first/last names of attendees. If you RSVP for this event with an incomplete name or alias, you will be moved to the wait list until that is corrected.
