Remote config guides for mobile apps using our feature flags

Summary

Idea via @ioannisj.

How to use PostHog feature flag with a payload to deliver remote configuration to your mobile or web app

Particularly relevant to mobile apps that suffer from long deployment cycles and App Store review processes.

Things like magic numbers and performance tuning (timeouts, caching limits, retry limits, default page sizes etc) can be defined in a feature flag playload and loaded at app launch time

Could also use variants to target different configurations per platform (e.g Android app vs iOS apps)

Mobile devs usually rely on https://firebase.google.com/docs/remote-config for this

Headline options

• How to implement Android app remote config
• How to implement React Native app remote config
• How to implement Flutter app remote config
• How to implement iOS app remote config

What (if any) keywords are we targeting?

• android remote config (210/mo)
• iOS remote config (90/mo)
• flutter remote config (320/mo)
• react native remote config (110/mo)

Outline (optional)

@ivanagas I reckon this is a great opportunity based on search + low competition. Will move to the planned list.
