Adding Feature Flags to Next.js (Upstash Redis, SWR, Hooks)

In this video we'll build our own feature flag management tool in Next.js, storing the flags in Upstash Redis, creating a custom hook to check a flag's status in the view.
*Warning* I did not handle authentication... if you're going to use this approach, please add authentication checks where appropriate.

Check out my course called Next Level Next.js! A full stack course covering GraphQL, TypeScript, Apollo, Prisma, auth and lots more! next.leighhalliday.com
Also... as a **warning** I did not cover authentication in the above video. Something like managing feature flags should DEFINITELY be behind some form of authentication. You don't want any random user toggling your flags!!

It is a very useful video. Just pushed a long awaited feature as returning to the last listening position in a play list. Thank you.
