When it comes to smooth deployment and roll-out of new features in software products, feature flags play a critical role. Across software development workflows like agile, they are becoming essential. I have found that using them drastically reduced the risk of adversely affecting user experience since they enable me to quickly disable a new feature if unintentional bugs are discovered.
As the world continues to change rapidly, software applications must be constantly updated. This forces software developers to release new features quickly. It is, however, a challenge to keep bugs and other software issues to a minimum. I have always found that feature flagging saves the day in these situations.
We live in a world overflowing with information, where we’re connected and online almost every single day. Informational overload is a real thing, and we should all be aware enough not to fall victim to this behavioral pattern loop.
To-do lists are a real "Hail Mary" in today’s clickbait-centric and attention-grabbing world, so I figured that it’d be fun for us to build our very own to-do app from scratch, using Ionic and ConfigCat's feature flags.
As a Software Developer, a feature flag management system gives me control and confidence when it comes to rolling out new features. I like that feature flagging offers this level of control as well as the ease with which it integrates into my development workflows.
Remix, the React-based full-stack framework for building server-rendered applications, has been generating a lot of buzz lately, especially since it was open-sourced. Remix is a dedicated Server-Side Rendering (SSR) framework for building web applications that are rendered on the server.
Growing up as a child of the ’90s has always been a bitter-sweet kind of experience, but it certainly also came with a multitude of benefits. We’ve been exposed to countless priceless moments that have come and passed, moments that stand to make history and which may never be experienced again by newer generations. One such example of a beautiful lived-through historical moment is growing up with the fabled Space Invaders game.
Simple yet memorable, Space Invaders made waves across the world and undoubtedly served as a catalyst for the revival of a previously stale and dying gaming industry that’s now priced at no less than 173.7 billion USD.
Let's take a look at how practical a feature flag can be in a Phaser.io application. Phaser is one of the most popular browser game libraries and with its help, I'll build a simple game that replicates the experience of being in a music studio. Let's get started!
Feature flags have greatly simplified the process of continuously testing and integrating new features into our applications. They ensure confidence even in production environments, eliminating deployment risks such as downtimes or bugs that could adversely affect the entire user base.
A new ConfigCat JavaScript SDK supporting apps using Server-Side Rendering (SSR) frameworks like NuxtJS.
XMLHttpRequest is not defined issueIt is forked from the standard ConfigCat JavaScript SDK
and of course open source. It is a bit bigger as a package since instead of using the standard XMLHttpRequest we have added
Axios Http Client to avoid XMLHttpRequest is not defined like issues.
In this post, I will show you how we implemented the animations where the cat follows the cursor with his eyes when entering username and hides them when entering password.
