- Create collections and add documents.
- Perform complex queries on collections.
- Add listeners for document and collection changes.
- Lightweight and easy to integrate.

`

#### Creating a Collection

To create a collection, use the collection method on your DB instance:

`javascript
const usersCollection = db.collection("users");
`

#### Adding documents

To add documents to a collection use the method 'add'
You can pass an array or a single element

`javascript
const users = [
{
name: "John",
age: 25,
email: "john@example.com",
},
{
name: "Alice",
age: 33,
email: "alice@example.com",
},
];

usersCollection.add(users);
`

#### Querying Documents

You can perform queries on collections using methods like 'where', 'orderBy'.

`javascript
const query = usersCollection.where("age", ">", 30);

console.log(query.count); // Numbers of documents

if (query.empty === false) {
query.docs.forEach((doc) => {
console.log(doc.data); // Document data
});
}
`

#### Listening to Document Changes

You can listen to real-time updates on a collection or document using 'on':

`javascript
const listener = query.on((snapshot) => {
if (snapshot.empty === false) {
snapshot.docs.forEasch((doc) => {
console.log(doc.data); // Document data
});
}
});

listener.remove();

const document = query.doc("uidDocument").set({
name: "Alex",
age: 44,
email: "alex@example.com",
});

const docListener = document.on((snapshot) => {
if (snapshot.exists) {
console.log(snapshot.data); // Document data
}
});

docListener.remove();
