:::tip

If you're using FlutterFire in an existing application, you can safely remove any manual native installation
steps (such as the `google-services.json` or `GoogleService-Info.plist` files). Dart-only initialization
is backwards compatible with [manual-installation](./manual-installation.mdx).

If you're using FlutterFire in an existing application, you can use Dart-only initialization for most plugins.
However, there are plugins that still require [manual-installation](./manual-installation.mdx) (i.e. using `google-services.json` or `GoogleService-Info.plist` files).
Please see this [usage guide](./cli.mdx#usage) to learn what plugins need manual installation.
