good first issue

Description

I'm new to code and would like to learn how to set up using Firebase instead of MongoDB.

Would like to see an alternative code to Firebase instead, hope this is alright.

(I'm new to this so I'm not sure if I did it the right way. Sorry if I caused any issues!)

Research direction
Examine the existing MongoDB implementation in the Next.js app (likely in lib/mongodb.js or similar). Research Firebase SDK integration (firebase admin) and compare with current authentication flow. Consider creating a new Firebase provider file and modifying API routes to support both databases. Review comments on issue #76 for any additional requirements.
