  1. Here are some points to follow:

    1. Deleting your Google Cloud Platform (GCP) project from the Google Cloud Console will not automatically delete your associated Firebase project, its database, storage, or any other Firebase functionalities.
    2. Firebase and GCP projects are distinct entities, although they can be linked together.
    3. When you create a Firebase project, it is automatically linked to a GCP project behind the scenes. However, the Firebase project itself exists independently within the Google Cloud infrastructure.
    4. Therefore, deleting the GCP project only removes the associated GCP resources (e.g., Compute Engine VMs, Cloud Storage buckets, Cloud Functions) that were created and linked to that specific GCP project. Your Firebase project and its resources (database, storage, etc.) will remain intact unless you explicitly delete them through the Firebase console or use the Firebase CLI tool (firebase delete).

  2. A Firebase project is a GCP project. You’ll notice they have the same unique ID and show the same data. When you use the Firebase console, it activates GCP services and provides an additional way to manage them. If you delete the GCP project, you are also effectively deleting the Firebase project, since they are fundamentally the same thing.

    You can easily test this for yourself by creating and deleting as many temporary projects as you want. There should be no billing incurred for this.
