I have seen many post about firebase with google sign-in. In google's tutorial for google sign-in for android project, it does not use firebase but on many post people use firebase with google sign-in. What is the advantage of using firebase and when and why we need to use it?

Authenticate users by integrating with federated identity providers. The Firebase Authentication SDK provides methods that allow users to sign in with their Google, Facebook, Twitter, and GitHub accounts.
With Firebase the users will be authenticated and you will have access to the firebase database/cloud functions and other services. So its better to use firebase with google sign in. Basically to make it easier for you after sign in.
