Yoooo krazyy I just pulled an issue request to firebase docs wtf.
this dumbahh donāt even update their shit nomo and this doc is used as aĀ beginner-friendly introĀ to theirĀ core conceptsā specificallyĀ firebase storage.
so Iām going through the guide like a normal person, trying to refresh my brain,
then I see this snippet usingĀ getDocs().
the code itself is whatever, but the sampleĀ outputĀ they included?
nah thatās where I lost it.
𤔠sample output straight up wrong
bro.
the output shows aĀ plain objectĀ like:
doc.id => [object Object]
when what itĀ shouldĀ be showing is theĀ actual key-pair values inside the doc, like:
doc.id => { name: "julius", age: 23, ... }
likeĀ whatās the pointĀ of showing an object placeholder when the whole point of the example is to demonstrateĀ how to retrieve data from a document?
this is literally aĀ core use caseĀ and theyāre showing it wrong.
so misleading. so lazy.
š¤ so I did something about it
aināt no way Iām letting this slide.
but here's the catch: iāve never doneĀ anything collaborativeĀ on GitHub before.
never pulled a request, never submitted an issue, never even commented.
just me, pushing commits to my own dusty ass projects.
my github graph?
100% commit bars. no diversity.
but I said fuck it ā I'm gonna figure it out.
š ļø first ever Github issue... and it's on firebase
read through how to open one, clicked around a bit, and finally submitted it.
my first ever Github issue
and itās not even on some small project ā
itās onĀ googleās firebase docs repoĀ š
if they actually fix that line, idc, iām putting "contributed to firebase" in my resume.
š but letās be real... their issue history dead af
I checked their recent activity after I submitted.
the last legit closed issue was fromĀ 2023.
someone literally submitted an issue namedĀ "J", said nothing, then closed it.
activity farming at its peak.
so now Iām just waiting, hoping someone at google opens their eyes and sees my masterpiece of a report.
ā if they fix it, I win
Iām not even asking for a thank you.
just fix your shit.
I'm doing the workĀ your docs team clearly didnāt bother to double check.
until then, Iāll just keep refreshing the issue thread like a menace.
no lmao just kidding I take it back.
Iām asking for a BIG AHH:
āTHANK YOU BREANZY FOR FIXING OUR SHIT OH MY GOD YOU SAVED FIREBASE HOLY SHIT PLEASE WORK FOR US AS A SENIOR MOTHERFUCKING SOFTWARE ENGINEER AND BECOME OUR SUPREME OVERLORD.ā
