Check out my I/O talk on Friday (Progressive Web Apps on Firebase). While the Firebase Web SDK doesn't support persistent offline just yet, we do have some new ways to get the job done.

Um... what about this?

The Firebase JS SDK currently supports non-persistent offline. So long as you keep the tab open, Firebase works great offline!

However, if you go offline and then try to refresh the content, none of it will be persistently stored or accessible until you go back online.

Thanks for the clarification.

I was hoping to use Firebase on a React Native app but I do need persistence. Do you have or plan to make some wrapper of the native iOS/Android SDKs for React Native?

Are you sure? They seem to advertise offline persistence for both mobile and web.

Yep, no way close to PouchDB.
