Vercel's new Flags SDK is a brilliant show of taste in developer experience 💯
It introduces significant "artificial" limitations (server-only, no arguments at call site)—but those actually end up guiding users down the pit of success:
· Server-only → No client-side loading spinners
· No arguments at call site → Consistent evaluation, easy to reason about, simple to delete
:chef-kiss:

Appreciate the kind words, we’ve put a lot of thought into it! The constraints also allow us to make the toolbar aware of all flags defined in code so you can override them easily, and we’ve got a few more things this unlocked to share soon!
I’m itching for a chance to use this, the API looks so much better than anything else I’ve used
Agreed. Taste is everything in DevTools 💯
