Feature Flags

Feature flags allow you to enable or disable features/functionality at runtime. They enable the gradual rollout of features, continuous deployment, A/B testing, quick rollbacks, and dark launches.

In Flagship, each feature flag is given a name, description, and conditions, and can also be toggled on and off. If a feature flag is enabled but is given no conditions, it is essentially enabled for all. The name of each feature flag is its primary identifier. It is recommended to follow a consistent naming convention, e.g. lower or upper snake case.

Conditions

Conditions allow you to control when feature flags are enabled. Before setting feature flag conditions, you should first create one or more context fields. You can then build your conditions based off these. There are different operators that can be used based on the value type of a context field. Conditions can be joined together using AND/OR boolean operators to form more complex conditions.

Audit Logs

All changes made to feature flags are recorded and can be viewed in the UI. You can see which users changed which fields and at what time.
