Are you talking about the data? There is an export JSON button in the dashboard. – David East Jul 12 '14 at 17:59

Firebase is a platform for building realtime web applications. A "Firebase" is a realtime database that is hosted in the cloud. When you create a new "app" in the account dashboard that is essentially creating a cloud hosted Firebase. With this new Firebase and it's data URL you can use that to act as your application's backend. This URL is usually looks something like this: https://myapp.firebaseio.com/.
You use the URL as an API to store data into your Firebase. Every time data is updated Firebase will stream out the changes to the data in realtime.
So, the only thing to download in your Firebase is the data.
