# Usage
After creating a Firebase project and installing the library, we can use it in our project by importing the library in our JavaScript:
```javascript
import RNFirebase from 'react-native-firebase'
```
We need to tell the Firebase library we want to _configure_ the project. RNFirebase provides a way to configure both the native and the JavaScript side of the project at the same time with a single command:
```javascript
const firebase = RNFirebase.initializeApp({
// config options
});
```
## Configuration Options
| option | type | Default Value | Description |
|----------------|----------|-------------------------|----------------------------------------|
| debug | bool | false | When set to true, RNFirebase will log messages to the console and fire `debug` events we can listen to in `js` |
| persistence | bool | false | When set to true, database persistence will be enabled. |
For instance:
```javascript
import RNFirebase from 'react-native-firebase';
const configurationOptions = {
debug: true
};
const firebase = RNFirebase.initializeApp(configurationOptions);
export default firebase;
```
