This extension allows you to interact with Firebase Analytics in a uniform way for games on iOS and Android.
To use Firabase in your Defold project, add a version of the Firebase extension to your game.project
dependencies from the list of available Firebase Releases and corresponding Firebase Analytics Release.
Find the version you want for both extensions, copy the URLs to ZIP archive of the release and add it to the project dependencies.
Follow the main setup guide for integration of Firebase in Defold.
