Firebase Unity3D desktop app (Mac/PC) - does it wo

Question

Firebase, in the doc here

Document "A":

https://firebase.google.com/docs/unity/setup

it claims that it DOES now work for desktop builds. (So, in unity you create a Mac app or Windows app.)

1. it does work perfectly "in the Editor" (on Mac or PC), which is great

2. it does NOT seem to work as a Mac or PC build - I cannot get it to work

And here for instance..

Document "B":

https://firebase.google.com/support/release-notes/unity

.. it suggests it is not working (although its' a bit confusing).

Is it not working yet, or did we just screw up?

This is a bummer.

As I mention below, you can't use Firebase for VR until this is done, since VR builds are Windows builds.

While most Unity SDKs for Firebase should now work in the Unity editor, build targets for desktop environments are not yet supported. So: you can develop games targeting iOS and Android on the desktop, but you can't target desktop games yet.
