Description

It is very inconvenient to conditionally import Firebase / SkipFirebase every time, I suppose it could be transparently handled by the transpiler similarly to how SwiftUI, Foundation etc are converted to SkipUI, SkipFoundation etc ?

Research direction

Start by tracing the transpiler behavior for SwiftUI and Foundation, which the issue cites as comparable conversions, and compare it with how Firebase and SkipFirebase imports are currently handled. The work is done when Firebase imports can be handled transparently by the transpiler without requiring conditional import changes in each source file.
