Feature flags

[janhesters]

I think it would be great if Remix Utils could shape a basic harness for feature flags.

I'm thinking, adding it to certain % of users (maybe via cookies?) and using server sent events to update them, in case the config changes.

Could be done via a middleware.

I'm currently evaluating feature flag solutions for React Router, and can't find any solution that uses React Router's capabilities to its fullest extend. There are probably also ways to use Suspense to exclude deactivated code from the bundle. Maybe standardized with openfeature.

@sergiodxa would love to hear your thoughts and recommendations 🙏

Feature flag is too complex to be a util, it could be a standalone package and even a service, also in my experience this needs more integration with other parts of the stack like your API/DB as you may want to enable/disable flags for a specific user or group of users.

@sergiodxa Got it, thank you. Do you have any recommendations for feature flag packages that work well with React Router?
