This is the Realtime Database component of the Firebase Android SDK.

The Firebase Realtime Database is a cloud-hosted database. Data is stored as JSON and synchronized in realtime to every connected client. When you build cross-platform apps with our iOS, Android, and JavaScript SDKs, all of your clients share one Realtime Database instance and automatically receive updates with the newest data.

All Gradle commands should be run from the source root (which is one level up from this folder). See the README.md in the source root for instructions on publishing/testing the Realtime Database.
