Hey Firebase Team,

First of all Thank you very much  for Firebase! its like mojo for agile development.

Nowadays i'm working on AngularFire + Ionic Hybrid App. but i'm stuck while creating database schema. as my background is from Relational DB i'm completely unaware of constructing Schema with Firebase.

well i'm looking for Product Catalog and Shopping Cart Database Structuring. i tried to figure out all possible ways to normalize collections. 

will you please help me with any sample e-commerce Database? and also some expert documentation to Headstart. 

looking forward for help. Thank you

Regards,
Mahesh

Question is too broad.

It's unclear to me what you really want.

Quick search for "sample e-commerce database" - BOOM - http://www.webassist.com/tutorials/Free-eCommerce-MySQL-Database - here you have e-commerce database but I guess you were looking for Firebase?

My (rather generic) advice would be to become familiar with Firebase, methods, patters... Just write some super simple app, change your "schema" as you go... BTW... Does Firebase have a schema? Not sure...

What I find works best with NoSQL, for me, is to mock up sample data in a JavaScript object (i.e. a fixture) and use that directly in my proofs. Since Firebase and most NoSQL offerings are essentially JSON trees, this is a great way to emulate data quickly and test out my nested architectures for pain points.
When I get to the point that I'm ready to try some real code and integrate Firebase, a quick call in the JavaScript console to `new Firebase(URL).set( jsData )` imports it into my test environment as quickly as that. 

Hope that helps.

And let me reiterate - be more specific of what you really want to achieve so the Universe can handle your request.

Michal
