Show HN: Featurevisor – Git-based feature flags and experiments management

48 pointsby fahad19about 2 years ago
Why?<p>- Decouple application deployment from releases<p>How it works:<p>- Make changes to your features and segments (YAMLs) via Pull Requests - Generate datafile (JSON file) in CI&#x2F;CD workflow and upload to your CDN - Fetch datafile in your application runtime and consume with SDKs<p>Supports:<p>- Feature flags: boolean flags - Experimentation: a&#x2F;b tests - Segments: targeting traffic with conditions - Variables: namespaced under each feature and conditional - Gradual rollouts: avoid big bang releases, go from 0% to 100% - Consistent bucketing: same user sees same variation - Multiple environments: prod, staging, test, and more - Force bucketing: allow testers to force enable&#x2F;disable for themselves only - Tagging: resulting in smaller datafiles for your application(s) - Tracking: integration with any analytics tool - Status site generator: for human friendly status reporting - SDKs: for Node.js and browser environments, Kotlin&#x2F;Swift planned for future

The typescript types subpackage was a pretty nice high level overview of what to expect here.<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;fahad19&#x2F;featurevisor&#x2F;blob&#x2F;main&#x2F;packages&#x2F;types&#x2F;src&#x2F;index.ts">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;fahad19&#x2F;featurevisor&#x2F;blob&#x2F;main&#x2F;packages&#x2F;t...</a><p>This is definitely a neat effort.<p>I started JSON dumping feature flags at work on a regular basis, so that is my main tool for scrubbing through &amp; seeing what happened.<p>The ability to keep building really neat tools around these paradigms is so infinite. Simon Willison&#x27;s git-history is notablehere, which was submitted earlier today. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=35690942" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=35690942</a><p>Personally I really think git (especially when going ham with good CoW filesystems) is the most notably interesting database coming at us from the future.

This looks super interesting! Any plans on expanding documentation and support for more frameworks and&#x2F;or languages?

Do you support exclusions, to ensure interacting experiments do not intersect?
