Firebase Init not creating files

[and.p...@gmail.com]

I'm trying to use firebase to collect email addresses for an email list which I'm going to export, but every time I try to initialize, it says it created the file (or folder if i leave it as public), but I can't find anything of where it created.


    You're about to initialize a Firebase project in this directory:
   
      /
   
    Before we get started, keep in mind:
   
      * You are initializing your home directory as a Firebase project
      * You are initializing in an existing Firebase project directory
   
    ? Which Firebase CLI features do you want to setup for this folder? Press Space
    to select features, then Enter to confirm your choices. Hosting: Configure and d
    eploy Firebase Hosting sites
   
    === Project Setup
   
    First, let's associate this project directory with a Firebase project.
    You can create multiple project aliases by running firebase use --add,
    but for now we'll just set up a default project.
   
    i  .firebaserc already has a default project, skipping
   
    === Hosting Setup
   
    Your public directory is the folder (relative to your project directory) that
    will contain Hosting assets to be uploaded with firebase deploy. If you
    have a build process for your assets, use your build's output directory.
   
    ? What do you want to use as your public directory? caf
    ? Configure as a single-page app (rewrite all urls to /index.html)? Yes
    ✔  Wrote caf/index.html
   
    i  Writing configuration info to firebase.json...
    i  Writing project information to .firebaserc...
   
    ✔  Firebase initialization complete!

the index file doesn't exist, and I can't deploy either.

The project is new, it doesn't let me select the project, but I'm assuming that's because I only have one project??

Hm, the line You are initializing in an existing Firebase project directory  sounds like you must have initialized a Firebase project in a higher level directory already. So it's thinking of this one as a child directory of an existing project rather than a new project. Can you check up the directory tree for an existing firebase.json file?
