Deploying to Vercel

The build uses Firebase Admin (Firestore) in getStaticProps / getStaticPaths. You must set these server-side environment variables in your Vercel project:

1. Vercel Dashboard → your project → Settings → Environment Variables.

2. Add these for Production (and Preview if you want):

   Name	Description
   FIREBASE_PROJECT_ID	Your Firebase project ID (e.g. ucla-radio-show-archive)
   FIREBASE_CLIENT_EMAIL	Service account email from Firebase Console → Project Settings → Service Accounts
   FIREBASE_PRIVATE_KEY	Service account private key (full key including -----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY----- / -----END PRIVATE KEY-----). In Vercel you can paste the key with real newlines, or use \n for line breaks; the app will normalize \n automatically.

3. Get the values from Firebase Console → Project Settings → Service accounts → Generate new private key, then use the project_id, client_email, and private_key from the downloaded JSON.

4. Redeploy after saving the variables (or trigger a new deployment).

Without these, the build fails with 16 UNAUTHENTICATED when fetching show/episode data from Firestore.
