I used FireBase to power my multiparty WebRTC video chat, and the entire codebase is < 300 lines. What is the most exciting for me is that FireBase also has an iOS and Android SDK, letting me work on mobile apps that plays nicely with my WebRTC app without having to worry about implementing a real time backend: http://opentokrtc.heroku.com/

The only feature I wish that firebase would have is the ability to detect when the last person has left the connection. Currently, the only way to accomplish this is with their nodeJS module.
