Firestruct is built for teams looking for a Firefoo alternative that feels native on macOS and keeps Firebase work organized by module. The first release focuses on Firestore, Firebase Authentication, and Cloud Storage because those are the surfaces developers and support teams most often need during local testing, staging checks, and production support.

What is similar

Firestruct starts from the same practical need that made Firefoo useful: Firebase teams need faster ways to query Firestore, inspect data, edit records, administer users, export data, import data, and move data between environments without writing one-off scripts for every support task.

Where Firestruct is different

  • Storage is part of the current module set alongside Firestore and Auth.
  • The product is structured as focused modules that can grow over time.
  • Live projects, staging projects, service accounts, OAuth accounts, and local emulators are first-class targets.
  • Long-running and destructive work is designed around task progress, target labels, and explicit confirmation.

That makes Firestruct a fit for teams that want the speed of a Firebase GUI client while keeping each operation tied to the project, environment, and evidence needed to review the work later.
