Deployment Strategy for Express.js with Firebase Hosting

[prdai]

Hey everyone,

As our project evolves, we're encountering a challenge with deploying our Express.js application using Firebase Hosting. While Firebase Hosting offers great features for hosting static websites and serverless functions, it doesn't directly support hosting Express.js applications.

We've explored various options, including using Firebase Cloud Functions for individual endpoints, deploying on other platforms like Heroku or AWS, or setting up a reverse proxy with Firebase Hosting.

We'd love to hear from the community about your experiences and recommendations for deploying Express.js applications alongside Firebase Hosting. What deployment strategies have you used? What are the pros and cons of each approach? Are there any best practices or tips you can share?

Please share your thoughts, experiences, and suggestions in this discussion thread. Your insights will be invaluable as we decide on the best deployment strategy for our project.
