Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with the package.json dependency set in a blank Expo Snack web project and inspect the reported Firebase resolution failure and linked screenshot. The issue does not name a source file or test; done would mean reproducing the failure, identifying its cause, and confirming that the supplied dependencies resolve successfully.
