Install via npm:

Usage

1. Set up the feature flag store

Within your main component or layout, initialize the feature flags using the initFeatureFlags function. This sets up the initial state of your flags.

1<script lang="ts">
2import { initFeatureFlags } from 'svelte-flick';
3
4initFeatureFlags({
5    'feature-a': true,
6    'feature-b': false,
7    'experimental-ui': false,
8    'beta-content': true
9});
10</script>
11
12<slot />

2. Add the toggle popup UI

Use the provided FlagPopup.svelte component to toggle flags interactively:

1<script>
2  import FlagPopup from 'svelte-flick';
3</script>
4
5<FlagPopup />

3. Conditionally render features

Wrap feature-specific UI inside the FeatureFlag component:

1<script>
2  import FeatureFlag from 'svelte-flick';
3</script>
4
5<FeatureFlag on="feature-a">
6  <p>Feature A is enabled</p>
7</FeatureFlag>

Or use the store directly:

1{#if $featureFlags['feature-b']}
2  <p>Feature B is enabled</p>
3{:else}
4  <p>Feature B is disabled</p>
5{/if}

Example

-- src/routes/+layout.svelte --

1<script lang="ts">
2    import { initFeatureFlags } from 'svelte-flick';
3
4    initFeatureFlags({
5        'feature-a': true,
6        'feature-b': false,
7        'experimental-ui': false,
8        'beta-content': true
9    });
10</script>
11
12<slot />

-- src/routes/+page.svelte --

1<script>
2    import FlagPopup from 'svelte-flick';
3    import FeatureFlag from 'svelte-flick';
4    import { featureFlags } from 'svelte-flick';
5</script>
6
7<FlagPopup />
8
9<main>
10  <FeatureFlag on="feature-a">
11    <h2>Feature A Content</h2>
12  </FeatureFlag>
13
14  {#if $featureFlags['feature-b']}
15    <p>Feature B Enabled</p>
16  {:else}
17    <p>Feature B Disabled</p>
18  {/if}
19</main>

Advanced Usage

You could create your own custom toggle UI or integrate Flick with your backend to fetch feature flags dynamically. The store is reactive, so any changes to the flags will automatically update the UI without needing a page reload.

The featureFlags store can be used directly in any Svelte component to check the status of flags or to toggle them programmatically.

This is a snippet from FlagPopup.svelte which demonstrates how to use the store

1import { featureFlags } from 'svelte-flick';
2import { onMount } from 'svelte';
3
4let flags = {};
5
6const toggleFlag = (key: string) => {
7    featureFlags.toggle(key);
8};
9
10const unsubscribe = featureFlags.subscribe(v => {
11    flags = v;
12});
13
14onMount(() => {
15    return () => unsubscribe();
16});
