| Hey everyone! My name is Will. I’ve been leading engineering teams for over two decades. Also, first time HN user here! One of the common pains I’d encounter in nearly every product I managed was alerting end users to infrequent events like outages, global announcements, beta launches, planned maintenance, etc. We’d always need to deploy custom, one-off modals or other alerts and then have to remember to revert them later. It was always a time sink for a developer to put aside what they were working on to make this happen. This Is Not A Drill! is a simple-to-install JS SDK that makes it simple to put these kinds of alerts on any page of your app. With one line, developers can have flexible, customizable alerts (toasts, modals, inline) appear whenever and wherever you want them, as well as keep track of who saw them. So if your product manager comes to you on a Friday about something that needs to be announced 6am Monday, you no longer need to work through the weekend! :D I’d love your feedback on what I’ve built. This is my first solo SaaS tool that I’ve built and launched into the wild - so feedback and inputs are very, very appreciated.

Is there a way to target individual users or a subset of users?
