Summary

When developing your own website it is sometimes helpful to enable or disable certain aspects of it.

Reasons for this are mainly:

  • Hide or show a new feature or functionality that is not released yet
  • Enable or disable functionalities that should only be available for developers

Overall this practice is called using "feature-toggles" or "feature-flags".

One way to activate or deactivate such feature-flags is by adding specific URL parameters to the URL of the website, e.g. https://your-website.com/?my-feature=1&my-other-feature=1

With this chrome extension you can activate, deactivate, add and delete these toggles without having to edit your URL directly.
