Answer 1

When running

firebase init functions

I use this configuration

? What language would you like to use to write Cloud Functions? JavaScript
//TypeScript doesn't work
? Do you want to use ESLint to catch probable bugs and enforce style? Yes
//If you don't you will get a missing file lint
? File functions/package.json already exists. Overwrite? Yes
? Do you want to install dependencies with npm now? Yes
//Why not

Then if use windows

Replace $RESOURCE_DIR by %RESOURCE_DIR% in firebase.json
