growthbook VS flagsmith

Why did we choose GrowthBook?

I would not adopt a platform that did not support exclusions. I think you should create a marketing page explaining the ways you are superior to the competition. Right now I would pick https://www.growthbook.io/

Seems that no-one mentioned my favorite feature flagging + A/B testing open source tool: https://www.growthbook.io/

Currently have the task of spiking a technical setup for A/B testing within our team application. I've already been looking at Growthbook and react-ab-test, what other tools / sources of info do people normally reach for in their own experience?

What are the differences to Flagr, GrowthBook or Flagsmith?

I work in the marketing analytics field, so I'm not that deep into product (even though I'm dabbling and will jump at the opportunity when one presents itself). Feature flags are being used to roll out experiments. Essentially, you publish code/experiments to the app source code, and based on the flag it shows a control or variant. The flag is fetched from a server and the rollout can easily be disabled if issues crop up. https://www.growthbook.io/ is an open-source tool that seems to be getting a bit of traction.

Considering all these points, the team at Flagsmith has developed a feature flag management platform Flagsmith and made it open source. The core functionality is open and you can check out the GitHub repository here. I have utilized and authored several blogs discussing their excellent offerings and strategies.

It’s also open source! Check out the repo here and don't forget to give it a star to show your support and join their amazing community to get technical support.

In this guide, we've chosen Flagsmith as our feature flagging solution. Flagsmith is an open-source platform that offers a user-friendly interface for managing feature flags, A/B testing, and segment overrides. You can control feature behaviour without modifying code, making it a powerful tool for managing complex projects with multiple feature variations.

Looks good. My friend launched Flagsmith a few years back too -https://github.com/Flagsmith/flagsmith. I have used it on a few of my own projects and it’s been great/easy to integrate

Is Flagsmith not the de-facto OSS LaunchDarkly?

If you are curious about our performance, please check out our status page. If you want to support us, please give us a star on Github! If you need feature flags and want to partner with a team that is in it for the reasons I outlined above; feel free to sign up for a free account and give it a try!

I believe the idea is that you run feature flag management as a separate service. It's not meant for desktop software but rather as a component of a microservices architecture. This is not uncommon - I know at least one of the FAANGs has something like this internally.

Flagsmith [1] (formerly Bullet Train) is another open source feature-flags-as-a-service software, and they have their own SaaS offering now.
