### Problems

[](#problems)

IRL projects, it is inevitable for PRs that contains a lot of changes (thousands of lines, 50+ files).

For those PRs, even you have 10 people to review, they still won't cover everything 100%. Simply because it is too much.

Everybody loves small PRs and that is the undeniable fact. But how can we achieve it?

Welcome to DevFlag!

### Solutions

[](#solutions)

DevFlag will help you to achieve that. Not only the tool, but also require a bit of your critical thinking.

Before starting development, you need to ensure:

- The scope, the changes that you will do (aka Technical Breakdown)
    - This is the most important phase, you need to finalize the:
        - Schema changes: avoid updating too much
        - Code
- Create a DevFlag
- Start the development

    'testing' => [
        'useNewFeature' => true,
    ],
    'staging' => [
        'useNewFeature' => false,
    ],
    'production' => [
        'useNewFeature' => false,
    ],
];
```
