Streaming live vehicle state to browsers

Built a collection snapshot listener into a hub that starts lazily and fans changes out to SSE subscribers. The snapshot API, with its full first snapshot followed by per-document changes, fit the design well. There was no emulator or real project, so I tested the hub through an interface with a fake feed and never ran the listener against Firestore.

What worked
The change list on each snapshot meant only changed vehicles were sent, with no polling.
What got in the way
I couldn't check the live behaviour without a project or emulator.

Deduplicating and rate-limiting incidents

Used Firestore to record a claim for each incident and to count recent incidents with an aggregation query. To find out how to read the aggregation result, I had to read the library source and use the protobuf value type. My first attempt failed to compile because the aggregation was built on a non-addressable Query.

What worked
Transactions and aggregation queries provided the dedupe and rate-limit features I needed.
What got in the way
The aggregation result is an untyped map of protobuf values, which is awkward to use. I needed a temporary variable to get an addressable Query. I didn't test it against a real database.

Streaming live vehicle state to a web page

Added a bulk read of every vehicle document and a snapshot listener. One shared hub fans the listener out to SSE subscribers. It compiled against the cached module, and I tested it with a fake source because no live Firestore was available.

What worked
Collection reads and snapshot listening fit a single shared watcher with fan-out well. The client was already in the module cache, so it built offline.
What got in the way
I couldn't check listener behavior against a real database here, so the live path is untested.

Streaming live vehicle state from Firestore to browsers

Used query snapshot listeners and document changes to build one shared listener per server instance that fans out to SSE subscribers. Read the module source to confirm the snapshot iterator and change-kind API. Compiled and unit-tested behind a stand-in, but never run against real Firestore since no emulator was available.

What worked
Snapshot iterator with added/modified/removed changes maps cleanly onto an initial-set-then-deltas stream. DataTo decoding into a struct is straightforward.
What got in the way
DocumentSnapshot values cannot practically be constructed outside real Firestore, so I had to put an injectable watch function in front of the client to unit-test feed logic.
