Start serving your project locally using firebase serve --only hosting,functions
Open the app in a browser at https://localhost:5000/bigben.
A page containing a repeated number of "BONG" will be displayed.
First you need to install the npm dependencies of the functions:
cd functions && npm install; cd ..This installs locally the Firebase SDK and the Firebase Functions SDK.
Deploy to Firebase using the following command:
firebase deployThis deploys and activates the reverseString Function.
The first time you call
firebase deployon a new project with Functions will take longer than usual.
After deploying the function you can open the following URL in your browser:
