How to Determine the Available versions of Firebase

I would like to know how to get the latest version of Firebase. How would I select from latest, beta, or stable versions? As of now, I believe the latest Firebase is version 3.5.1. I am not even sure.

Any help or suggestions is appreciated.

The latest Firebase releases, for all platforms, are listed in the release notes, which can be found here.

If you are using the NPM-distributed Firebase, you can run the following command to see the latest version:

 npm view firebase version dist-tags

Which effects the following output:

version = '3.5.1'
dist-tags =
{ latest: '3.5.1',
  '1.2.0-beta.1-0': '1.2.0-beta.1-0',
  '1.2.0-beta.2': '1.2.0-beta.2',
  '1.2.0-beta.3': '1.2.0-beta.3' }

Note that dist-tags includes the latest, stable release and some very old betas. As mentioned in the comments, the latest, stable release is the only Firebase release. If beta or next versions were to be released, they would typically be listed in the dist-tags.
