Issue
My flutter code isn’t running on web.
I found that “bool kisweb” can be used to detect the platform. But my code is failing at “FirebaseAuth.instance”. Does this mean I can’t use Firebaseauth on web as it might be depending on dart:io?

Please help me resolve this issue.
Solution
No, the FlutterFire group of plugins is in no way supported on Flutter Web. They rely on platform-specific APIs and are currently only implemented for Android and iOS.
Update May 2021: As pointed out by Moslem Deris, FlutterFire is now officially supported on the web: https://firebase.flutter.dev/docs/installation/web/
