I am about to start making an app using Firebase for both Android and iOS. I plan to have a backend which will do regular clean-ups of the data such as deleting at the end of the day.
Would I be better off using the Firebase Database directly through each of the iOS and Android apps, not accessing my own server at all,
OR
Would I be better off using Node to access the Firebase Database, and then making my own RESTful API and making the calls to Firebase from the mobile apps through my API?
Thanks in advance for your help!
