Type-safe app configuration: a powerful, emerging way to accelerate product development by Miraan

Everyone has heard of feature flags: boolean switches in your code that you can flip at runtime for different users, environments, etc. But they are just one part of a much broader best practice called “application configuration”. Big tech companies like Meta and Google have internal tools for structured, type-safe app configuration that help them accelerate development of products and backend services. This talk dives into what app configuration is, how you can use it in React and how it can empower your whole team to move faster, including your nontechnical colleagues.

Bio: Miraan is the founder at Hypertune. He was previously at Meta where he led teams across frontend, mobile, backend and machine learning.
