LazyFire – a lazygit-style terminal UI for Firebase Firestore

egosurffing Thursday, March 12, 2026

Hi HN,

I built LazyFire, a terminal UI for Firebase Firestore inspired by lazygit.

I use Firestore a lot, but constantly switching to the Firebase Console to inspect data, run queries, or debug documents was slowing down my workflow. I wanted something that works entirely inside the terminal with keyboard navigation.

LazyFire lets you:

• browse Firestore collections and documents • inspect nested JSON easily • run queries • filter results with jq • navigate everything with vim-style keys • view Cloud Function logs

The goal is to make working with Firestore feel similar to tools like lazygit or k9s.

It's written as a CLI tool and works well if you're already developing from the terminal.

I'd love feedback from other Firebase users: - missing features - workflow improvements - bugs or UX issues

Thanks!
