A powerful Visual Studio Code extension for exploring, querying, and editing multiple Firebase / Google Cloud Firestore databases directly inside VS Code.
Features
Multiple Firestore Connections: Connect to multiple Firestore instances simultaneously (Production, Staging, Dev, Local Emulators, and custom Database IDs).
Interactive Tree Explorer: Browse collections, documents, and sub-collections across all your connections in one sidebar view.
Direct Document Editing: Open and edit any document as native JSON with full VS Code editor features. Saving the file (Cmd+S / Ctrl+S) writes updates back to Firestore immediately.
Table View with Search: View collection documents in a tabular format, search across fields, and paginate with ease.
Document Management: Create new documents (with optional JSON templates) and delete documents safely.
Export: Export collection data directly to JSON files.
Custom Ordering & Pagination: Sort collections by any field in ascending or descending order.
Getting Started

Click Add Connection (+) in the view title bar or run Firestore Studio: Add Connection from the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P).
Choose your connection method:
Service Account Key (JSON): Select your downloaded Firebase service account JSON key file.
Local Firestore Emulator: Specify emulator host (e.g., localhost:8080) and project ID.
