Alright, let’s talk about deploying code without having a full-blown panic attack. You ever push something live and immediately regret it? Like, ‘Oh no, I just nuked the homepage’? Well, guess what—Flipper’s got your back. Ship your code whenever you want, roll out features on your schedule, and if something goes sideways? Boom. Roll it back. No redeploy, no drama. Plus, you get multi-environment sync, audit history, and fine-grained permissions, so you don’t wake up to a ‘WTF happened?’ Slack message. Best part? Sign up at flippercloud.io/rails (https://www.flippercloud.io/rails) and get 10% off your first year. Flip the switch and chill out.
