GrowthBook Users

hi! I'm a new growthbook user and I just started a react integration. i followed all the instructions for the react sdk, but i keep getting `false` from `useFeatureIsOn` even after activating my environment and setting the default value to `on`. Anyone know why this might be the case

Hi Jie, There can be a few reasons why. To debug, you can use the GrowthBook Chrome DevTools. You should also make sure there is a network request to get the feature flags, and then make sure you’re correctly setting attributes.

gotcha, let me try with those suggestions first

The devtools show the right values, but when I call `useFeatureIsOn` the value i get is false:
```  useEffect(() =&gt; {
    // Load features asynchronously when the app renders
    growthbook.loadFeatures()
  }, [])

  // TODO: fix growthbook feature flag usage
  // Feature flags
  const clientSidebarFeatureFlag = useFeatureIsOn('dev_portal_client_sidebar')
  console.log('client sidebar feature flag', clientSidebarFeatureFlag)```

i'm calling the hook in a component that isn't wrapped by the provider
