This plugin configures and initializes Google Analytics for QuickBrick based projects. The plugin is based off of a library called react-ga written by the team over at the Mozilla.
When initializing Google Analytics the plugin either 'auto' configures the application using all of Google's defaults or it utilizes a custom configuration that works for projects running off the device's local file system. This configuration was designed to be used on web based platforms like Samsung and LG but it applies to any device running the static assets locally.
In order to use this plugin users are required to specify the tracker id. The format is UA-XXXX-Y. All collected data is associated by this ID.

trackingId | text | None |
