A small update, after my conclusion, I went ahead with my live trial and finally started a new journey
~/Desktop/APPENGINE/cloudsdk184/bin/gcloud app deploy -> after every small change ~/Desktop/APPENGINE/cloudsdk184/bin/gcloud app logs tail -> replaces the local development server - instead of instantly reading your local logs, you now trigger something, wait 5-10 seconds, and the "logs tail" pulls the live log to your Terminal after a healthy delay I started with a simple Firestore write, received "UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Error: 9 FAILED_PRECONDITION: The Cloud Firestore API is not available for Cloud Datastore projects." - then upgraded my unused Datastore to Native Firestore and saw my first data entry! Ironically, while the Firestore advertises live capabilities, you need to refresh https://console.cloud.google.com/firestore/data manually everytime you make a change too (documents auto update, but collections don't) I'm currently happy and excited, I just wish I came to this obvious conclusion earlier - Don't forget to limit your spending as a live environment isn't forgiving -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
