Important Considerations
- Is the base specification implemented?
- Have you used appropriate networking, JSON, etc. libraries in retrieving data from Firebase?
- Is the UI performant? For the list, is scrolling smooth despite loading images from the network? For the map, is drawing all the elements onto the map smooth despite there being more than 1200 of them?
