Summary

The text discusses a new open-source utility called firebase2graphql that helps developers migrate data from Firebase realtime database to Postgres while preserving the same application development experience, including realtime features. This tool uses Hasura GraphQL engine to expose GraphQL on postgres by dynamically creating the postgres schema and the GraphQL relationships from their CLI. The main problems solved are retaining the same query and data model structure as data is migrated from firebase into Postgres and automatically normalizing the denormalized firebase data model. The motivation behind this tool includes the advantages of using Firebase realtime database, GraphQL, and Postgres in combination.
