Introduction 🤔

Feedlr. is the best tool for gathering consumer feedback. It includes a widget that allows consumers to submit feedback with or without an email address and without requiring a login. After your consumers give feedback, you may access the Feedlr. dashboard to view the feedback, the device information from which it was submitted, the time it was submitted, and the URL from which it was sent. Additionally, you may filter feedback by date range, reaction, operating system, browser, and device, as well as search for responses based on feedback and URL.

Use can use Feedlr. in React Native and Flutter too

You can use your custom form and send post request to our server

💡 How to use Feedlr. in React Native?

The widget of Feedlr. is currently not available in react native. But soon will be, until then, if you want to integrate Feedlr. in React Native Project. You have to send the post request with email(optional), feedback, emoji(disappointed|hate|natural|good|excellent)(optional), and your projectId to https://feedlr.vercel.app/api/responses.

const makeRequest = async () => {
      let request = await axios({
           method: "post",
               url: "https://feedlr.vercel.app/api/responses",
               data: {
                   email,
                   feedback,
                   emoji,
                   projectId: YOUR_PROJECT_ID
               },
      });
      if (request.data.success) {
          alert("reponse saved");
       } else {
           alert("some error have occured");
        }
};

This is how you can integrate Feedlr. in your react native.

💡 How to use Feedlr. in Flutter?

You have to send the post request with email(optional), feedback, emoji(disappointed|hate|natural|good|excellent)(optional), and your projectId to https://feedlr.vercel.app/api/responses.

              Future<http.Response> createAlbum(String title) {
                return http.post(
                  Uri.parse('https://feedlr.vercel.app/api/responses'),

⚙️ How to customize the Feedlr. widget (For web)?

From Dashboard

You can customize the widget view from the dashboard. Just head to the settings of the project and check the UI section. From there you can change the colors of text, buttons, and background of the widget for dark and light mode.

Using script tag

Yes, you can customize the look of the widget from the script tag itself.

🔰 How did I get started?

The first few days were challenging for me since I was trying to come up with a concept for this hackathon. Then, when I got the idea of this project. I began gathering the necessary materials right after that. Once I've finished my research, I know exactly how it should look. To begin, I created a new project with Next.js and TypeScript.

yarn create next-app feedlr --typescript

Then, I implemented Auth0 in this project. Auth0 was very easy to implement. Just added the nextjs-auth0 package by following the command.

yarn install @auth0/nextjs-auth0

and wrapped the <Component/> with <UserProvider> in pages/_app.tsx.

import { UserProvider } from '@auth0/nextjs-auth0';
...
 <UserProvider>
           <Component {...pageProps} />
</UserProvider>
...

and created [...auth0].ts file inside api/auth folder and added the following code.

import { handleAuth } from '@auth0/nextjs-auth0';

export default handleAuth();

Then added the AUTH0 configurations in .env.local.

AUTH0_SECRET= YOUR_AUTH0_SECRET
AUTH0_BASE_URL= YOUR_AUTH0_BASE_URL
AUTH0_ISSUER_BASE_URL= YOUR_AUTH0_ISSUER_BASE_URL
AUTH0_CLIENT_ID= YOUR_AUTH0_CLIENT_ID
AUTH0_CLIENT_SECRET= YOUR_AUTH0_CLIENT_SECRET

Wow, the authentication is completed. Now, users can log in from http://localhost:3000/api/auth/login and log out from http://localhost:3000/api/auth/logout.

This is how I got started on my project.

☁️ Deploying

As always, Vercel was my friend for hosting this site too. I started a new project in Vercel and connected GitHub repo with that Vercel project and all done.

Now, you can use it from https://feedlr.vercel.app.

🛣️ Roadmap

Feedlr. is the hardest project of my life because I have gained a tremendous amount of knowledge in a field in which I had no prior expertise. I am planning to take Feedlr. to another level by adding other more features in the future (I'm currently working on some of them).

Here's a rundown of upcoming Feedlr. features that will be available soon:

• Receive a weekly overview of feedback in an email
• Be alerted on the Discord server when feedback is received
• Inline widgets
• Capture a snapshot of the webpage
• Documentation Site

There are many more on the list that will soon be accessible in Feedlr.

💬 Feedback

Feedback is the best way to improve projects. This is why Feedlr. was born. So, you can also give your feedback in the comment section or from our site.
