title: Firebase Firestore

## Setup

Before using the Tanstack Query Firebase hooks for Firestore, ensure you have configured your Firebase application
to setup an Firestore instance:

```ts
import { initializeApp } from "firebase/app";
import { getFirestore } from "firebase/firestore";

// Initialize your Firebase app
initializeApp({ ... });

// Get the Firestore instance
const firestore = getFirestore(app);
```

## Importing

The package exports are available via the `@tanstack-query-firebase/react` package under the `firestore` namespace:

```ts
import { useDocumentQuery } from "@tanstack-query-firebase/react/firestore";
```
