Feature flags, also known as feature toggles, have become an essential tool for modern software development. They enable developers to control the release of new features and updates in a flexible and controlled manner. In this blog post, we'll explore what feature flags are, their classical and modern use cases, and how to implement them effectively in front-end, mobile, and server-side applications. We'll also delve into the concept of overlapping design A/B testing and how feature flags play a crucial role in building robust experimentation.

featbit/featbit: A scalable, fast and 100% open-source feature flag tool written in C# .NET (github.com)

You can find the tool at: https://github.com/featbit/featbit

Hi everyone, I wanted to introduce a new open-source feature flag management tool that we recently discovered and implemented in our production environment. You can find the tool at: https://github.com/featbit/featbit We tested several other tools, but what convinced us to choose this particular tool were the following reasons: 1. It offers all the necessary functionalities we require. Additionally, it seems that they continue to open-source additional functions that other tools don't provide, such as Audit Logs, Reusable Segments, Permission Control, and even Single Sign-On (SSO) in the future. 2. I joined their community, and I found the core team to be friendly and responsive (perhaps because they are relatively new). 3. The tool is developed using a programming language that aligns well with our daily work. 4. Although they open-sourced the project only 7 months ago, they have been working on its development for two years. 5. It is licensed under the MIT license. I thought it would be helpful to share this tool here for anyone who may need it or wants to add it to your wishing list. Enjoy!

It's MIT for those interested in such things

I see that you said github repo, but my life experience has been that those "awesome" style repos are committed to once and then ignore all pull requests or issues going forward. Thus, I think the audience would be better served by AlternativeTo or one of its ilk, which offers a licensing filter on their lists (e.g. https://alternativeto.net/software/github/?license=opensourc... )

But, a quick search for alternative coughed up a few results, which exhibit the behavior I described https://github.com/RunaCapital/awesome-oss-alternatives#awes... https://github.com/btw-so/open-source-alternatives?tab=readm...

One may also find more via topic exploration, e.g. https://github.com/topics/alternatives

Yeah, although I've always found the criteria of this list strange (In particular the requirement to be a for-profit startup) and their categorization of open source is not clear as reflected in this issue I opened.

I've called them out on it here and here before.

They also maintain and "Awesome-OSS-Alternatives" list to which I questioned many entries within.
