Research for `Beta` features to help us ship faster

Open tpmai22 opened this issue 2 years ago • 4 comments

Why would you like this to be added: Like @humphd mentioned during the meeting on how big companies would have a feature that have not been fully deployed be available in production as a beta version. Having this on telescope might be a big thing for us

There are lots of existing solutions for this for next.js, React, node.js, etc.

For example:

I can help with this. I have experience with feature flags (setup and implementation).

@manekenpix I'm really interesting too so if you can keep us posted (your set up and how you would do it) about that here. I would love to contribute some code as well

This seems like it's not going to happen. Any objections to me closing?

It's ok to close this. @chrispinkney and I worked on this and have something almost ready, but since telescope doesn't have any use cases that require feature flags at the moment, we kind of slowed down development. We can reopen this in the future.

OK, thanks to you both for starting this. It's something that would have been cool if we did early on in Telescope.
