Implementing feature flags in single page apps, using React and Redux Saga

What's this blog post about?

Single page apps (SPA) are increasingly popular due to their ability to deliver a more fluid and faster user experience. Feature flags, or toggles, allow developers to control access to specific features in an application. However, handling state transformations in SPAs can be challenging when using feature flags. This article discusses best practices for feature flagging in React single page apps, specifically using LaunchDarkly's JavaScript SDK. The process involves integrating the LaunchDarkly client with Redux Sagas and handling asynchronous actions to request feature flags. By following these steps, developers can effectively manage access to features in their SPAs while maintaining performance and a fluid user experience.
