Who Is This For?

Self-qualify in 30 seconds: Is Firebase Cost Trimmer right for your project?

✅ Perfect For

Read-heavy applications

SaaS dashboards, content sites, e-commerce platforms where data is read far more than written

Security-conscious teams

Projects requiring strict data isolation between users and compliance with GDPR/HIPAA

Cost-sensitive projects

Teams looking to cut Firestore costs by 40-50% without sacrificing security

Production applications

Apps that need reliable, battle-tested caching with enterprise-grade security

⚠️ May Not Need This

Write-heavy applications

Real-time collaboration tools where data changes constantly (cache invalidation overhead may outweigh benefits)

Hobby projects

Simple apps where security isn't critical and basic caching libraries suffice

Low-traffic apps

Projects with minimal read operations where Firebase costs are already negligible

Production-proven performance optimization

Enterprise-grade caching with security built-in. Reduce costs without compromising reliability or compliance.

L1/L2/L3 Caching
Three-tier caching architecture delivering sub-millisecond response times. L1 memory cache (<1ms), L2 process cache (<3ms), and L3 extended TTL (<10ms) for cold data.
Enterprise Security
Built-in user isolation, data sanitization, and audit logging. HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and GDPR compliance configurations included. No additional setup required.
One-Line Setup
Install and integrate in minutes with quickFirebase(). No complex configuration, no Redis setup, no external dependencies. Works with your existing Firebase code.
Real-Time Monitoring
Built-in performance validation and cache hit rate tracking. Know exactly how much you're saving with transparent metrics and honest reporting.

Verified Performance - Live Firebase Testing

40+ hours of continuous testing on real Firebase projects (not emulator). 6,000+ read/write operations with full security validation.

Why live testing matters:Firebase Emulator is unreliable for performance metrics

Firebase Reads: Before vs After

Test environment: Production Firebase (not emulator) • Pareto distribution (realistic traffic patterns)

React Hooks - Built-In

Production-ready React hooks with automatic loading states, error handling, and real-time updates

Quick Start

npm install @tthbfo2/firebase-cost-trimmer firebase

useDocument

Read single documents with automatic loading states and error handling

import { useDocument } from '@tthbfo2/firebase-cost-trimmer/react';

function ProductDetail({ productId }) {
  const { data, loading, error } = useDocument(
    'user-123',
    `products/${productId}`,
    { cache: true, ttl: 60000 }
  );

  if (loading) return <div>Loading...</div>;
  if (error) return <div>Error: {error.message}</div>;

  return <h1>{data?.name}</h1>;
}

useCollection

Query collections with automatic pagination and real-time updates

import { useCollection } from '@tthbfo2/firebase-cost-trimmer/react';

function ProductList() {
  const { data, loading, hasMore, loadMore } = useCollection(
    'user-123',
    'products',
    {
      constraints: [
        { field: 'category', operator: '==', value: 'electronics' },
        { type: 'limit', limit: 20 }
      ],
      realtime: true  // Enable real-time updates!
    }
  );

  return (
    <>
      {data.map((product, i) => (
        <ProductCard key={i} product={product} />
      ))}
      {hasMore && <button onClick={loadMore}>Load More</button>}
    </>
  );
}

useWrite

Handle create/update operations with loading states

import { useWrite } from '@tthbfo2/firebase-cost-trimmer/react';

function CreateProduct() {
  const { write, loading, error } = useWrite('user-123');

  const handleSubmit = async (formData) => {
    await write([
      {
        type: 'create',
        path: `products/${Date.now()}`,
        data: { name: formData.name, price: formData.price }
      }
    ]);
  };

  return (
    <button onClick={handleSubmit} disabled={loading}>
      {loading ? 'Creating...' : 'Create Product'}
    </button>
  );
}

OptimizerProvider

Wrap your app to provide optimizer context to all components

import { quickFirebase } from '@tthbfo2/firebase-cost-trimmer';
import { OptimizerProvider } from '@tthbfo2/firebase-cost-trimmer/react';

const app = initializeApp({ /* your config */ });
const optimizer = quickFirebase(app, 'balanced');

optimizer.registerUser({
  uid: 'user-123',
  email: 'user@example.com',
  role: 'user'
});

function App() {
  return (
    <OptimizerProvider optimizer={optimizer}>
      <YourApp />
    </OptimizerProvider>
  );
}

Quick Start

Get started in minutes with Firebase Cost Trimmer

1

Install

npm install @tthbfo2/firebase-cost-trimmer
2

Initialize (One-Line Setup)

import { quickFirebase } from '@tthbfo2/firebase-cost-trimmer';

const db = quickFirebase(yourFirestoreInstance);
3

Use It!

// Same API as Firestore, but optimized!
const userDoc = await db.collection('users').doc('123').get();
