+# TODOs demo: Syncbase and Firebase
+
+This is a TODOs application for Android which uses either Firebase or Syncbase
+as a persistence layer.
+
+## Building & running
+
+- Install [Android Studio](http://developer.android.com/tools/studio/index.html)
+- Open a project rooted in this directory
+
+## Switching between persistence layers
+
+To switch between Firebase and Syncbase use: `Build -> Select Build Variant`
+and choose between the various options (e.g., `firebaseDebug`, `syncbaseDebug` etc.)
+
+### Firebase
+
+The firebase app is at https://vivid-heat-7354.firebaseio.com/.
+Ross Wang and Alex Fandrianto manage the administration of the database.
+
+*WARNING*: There is no authentication required in this demo, and the TODO list
+is global, accessible to all. In a real TODOs app this would not be the case of
+course. In the mean time, don't put anything sensitive there!
