I just read your message regarding Firehopper, using it to receive user's address data and send PDF back to the users. I guess receiving the address data from the webpage via Firebase is possible, but sending it back to the website from Grasshopper seems to be a bit hard. If you want to show the PDF in your website, you have to upload the PDF somewhere, and Firehopper cannot help you with that. Also, what you are trying to do is, as far as I understood, using Grasshopper definition as a backend server. I'm not sure if this is possible since to do so, you have to run Grasshopper 24/7 from your system to make your website works. An alternative you can consider is, if you could find a plugin that sends email to the user, you can simply attach the PDF and let user receive it through the email.
Hope this helps. It's a bit brief answer in my point of view so please feel free to ask more if you have any.
