Building a toggle-able link in bio app with Reflex.dev and LaunchDarkly

By day, I'm a developer experience engineer; by night, I'm a stand-up comedian. My audience (whether it's a tech conference or comedy club) differs widely.  And as any skilled performer knows, the first way to bring on the tomatoes is by not serving your audience what they want. Fortunately, I've crafted a customizable (and toggle-able) link in the bio application using Reflex.dev and LaunchDarkly, which displays different information based on the scenario. Follow this guide to learn how to create a dynamic (and visually appealing) link in the bio site.
