you can post an issue here: GitHub - firebase/firebase-js-sdk: Firebase Javascript SDK

all expo install firebase does is install a particular version of firebase with npm

the actual issue you’re seeing is with your machine being unable to build the gprc package from source, see npm ERR! Failed at the grpc@1.24.0 install script. · Issue #1183 · grpc/grpc-node · GitHub

The actual problem in expo not maintain the current version of firebase ,the current version is 8. But expo installed 7 .I install firebase first and add npm.

global environment libraries simply because a single library refuses to play nicely, save that as a super-last resort…

Try this:

  1. Remove the lock file and the node_modules directory
rm  package-lock.json 
rm node_modules
  1. get the latest version of firebase
npm install --save-exact --save firebase@latest

at the time of writing this, the latest version of firebase was 8.10.0

  1. check for vulnerabilities
npm audit fix
  1. then run install
npm install

It worked for me with this combination:

node version: v14.7.0
npm version: 6.13.6

hth anyone who is still struggling…
