Link to project (GitHub):
https://github.com/bountyrush/nodejs-firestore

Describe the project in 2-3 sentences:
Project provides a Rest client for firestore while being compatible with main nodejs-firestore official project. Rest approach avoid accessing gRpc libraries for better cold starts.

Why would Firebase developers be interested in this project?:
If devs are using firestore with cloud functions, its a common problem to hit the cold starts issue. With official firestore sdk, it takes several seconds to connect and initialise leading to long cold starts. This is solved by avoiding using gRpc libraries and going with rest approach.

Have you added a .opensource/project.json file to your site: Yes/No
