Resolving the Uncaught ReferenceError: firebase is not defined Error in Your Flutter Web App

When working on a Flutter web application, you may encounter various errors during development and deployment. One of the most frustrating errors can be the Uncaught ReferenceError: firebase is not defined. This issue often arises when there are problems with loading Firebase scripts or improper configurations in your index.html file.

In this guide, we will guide you through understanding the causes of this error and provide a step-by-step solution to ensure your Firebase integration with Flutter works as intended.

Understanding the Problem

The error Uncaught ReferenceError: firebase is not defined suggests that the Firebase JavaScript library wasn’t loaded correctly before your application tries to use it. This can cause your Flutter web app to display a blank page or throw errors when you try to interact with Firebase services.

Signs of the Problem

You might notice the following symptoms:

A blank page when running your Flutter app.

Errors indicating that Firebase functionalities are undefined.

Specific console errors like Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found).

Solution Steps

Correct Order of Script Inclusion

Firebase App & CDNs: Load the Firebase core SDK first before any other Firebase product libraries.

Firebase Configuration: Insert your Firebase configuration settings.

Service Worker Installation: Include the registration of a service worker for PWA capabilities.

Main Application Script: Finally, load your main.dart.js script.
