I Hate When Building Simple Onboarding Feels Like a Whole New App
As a developer, I've spent countless hours wrestling with custom onboarding logic. The state management, the routing, the persistence, the conditional steps... it's a headache most libraries just ignore, leaving you to piece together a complex state machine from scratch.
You're trying to ship a great product, but instead, you're deep in the weeds of boilerplate code, managing all the possible states your app could be in as users navigate back and forth, or worse, worrying about losing their progress on a simple page refresh.
The truth is: You shouldn't have to build a complex state machine for every single onboarding flow. OnboardJS does it for you.
In the blog post, you'll learn how to leverage OnboardJS to create robust, maintainable onboarding experiences in minutes, not days. We'll build a simple two-step flow from scratch using Next.js and React.
OnboardJS is a headless, type-safe, and extensible engine designed specifically for managing multi-step user flows. What does "headless" mean? It means OnboardJS gives you the powerful "brain" to manage your flow's state, logic, and persistence, while you provide the "beauty" – your own React UI components.
This separation is crucial:
Your UI, Your Rules: Use any component library (Tailwind, Chakra UI, Shadcn UI, custom components!).
Built-in Logic: Handle complex navigation, conditional steps, and data collection effortlessly.
Automatic Persistence: Store user progress seamlessly, preventing frustrating restarts.
Type-Safe: Catch errors early with full TypeScript support, making your flows more robust.
