Until now I was very selective about onboarding new teams onto HappyKit. I gated the onboarding process through a manual step which required at least one interaction with me. Usually this would be an email, a Slack message or sometimes a friendly Zoom call.

@philfreo @jorilallo If you're on Next.js and looking for a simple solution, @happykitdev looks promising.

@dparksdev @jones_spencera @nextjs Same, does everything I want and isn’t bloated.

Amazing piece of software.

The setup is an extremely nice mix of Notion and Incremental Static Regeneration in Next.js

New HappyKit landing page just dropped

I wanted to this 3d wrench for sooo long! After many iterations I finally ended up with something I liked last night. I'm over the moon with how it turned out.

This is a great intro "the edge"!

HappyKit's feature flags live at the edge, waiting to be consumed by your Edge Middleware & Edge API Routes application at low latency :)

Wrote about HappyKit evaluates feature flags

Worth a read if you haven't used feature flags before, since a lot of first-timers run into the same thing.

Hopefully one day it's solved through a better UI instead :) Just have to come up with one first

Wow, https://t.co/XZwNmXhjI9 crossed 400 stars on GitHub!

HappyKit is now resolving ~4 million feature flags daily.

I'm feeling grateful for all your trust and support

Resources to get you started with building Payments apps. I've built with all of them

- Happy Kit (feature/beta flags): if 3rd party APIs go down, use @happykitdev/@LaunchDarkly to switch to always be live!

- Multi-currency: Use https://t.co/k1TeOa46iY + https://t.co/AVlR5WA7ZY

[HappyKit @happykitdev]

That's a great start, and with the right tools you can go one step further:

Build less. Make more. 🔧 😄

[Lex Fridman @lexfridman]

Complain less. Build more.

[Dominik Ferber @dferber90]

Added a new Types section to HappyKit

The types in the snippet are auto-generated based on your feature flags.

You can paste this into your project's types.d.ts file to then later use it as useFlags<AppFlags>() for fully typed flags
