Variants
Future toggles
When you need to use feature toggles you can use them like this:
import isFeatureOn from '../common/featureToggl';
isFeatureOn('nameOfFeature'); // returns true/false based on FEATURES enabled
Naming of features snakeCase.
How to enable feature:
FEATURES=featureA,featureB yarn start
Or add feature to cookie named FEATURES with value: featureA,featureB
! Be aware that enabling FEATURES by Cookie will not work with server side rendering and it is not a bug !
