Follow the instructions in your browser to complete the authentication.
Step 3: Initialize Firebase Hosting

firebase init
- Follow the prompts:
- Select Features: Use arrow keys to select Hosting: Configure files for Firebase Hosting (press space to select, then press enter).

- Public Directory: Enter the folder containing your built files (e.g., dist or build).
- Single-Page App: Choose Yes for "Configure as a single-page app."
