## What is Unleash?
2022-04-06 10:23:33 +02:00
2023-11-14 14:56:25 +01:00
Unleash is a powerful open source solution for feature management. It streamlines your development workflow, accelerates software delivery, and empowers teams to control how and when they roll out new features to end users. With Unleash, you can deploy code to production in smaller, more manageable releases at your own pace.
2022-04-06 10:23:33 +02:00
2023-11-14 14:56:25 +01:00
Feature flags in Unleash let you test your code with real production data, reducing the risk of negatively impacting your users' experience. It also enables your team to work on multiple features simultaneously without the need for separate feature branches.
2022-04-07 15:22:08 +02:00
2023-11-14 14:56:25 +01:00
Unleash is the most popular open source solution for feature flagging on GitHub. It supports 15 official client and server SDKs and over 15 community SDKs. You can even create your own SDK if you wish. Unleash is compatible with any language and framework.

## Getting Started with Unleash
2022-04-06 10:23:33 +02:00
2023-11-14 14:56:25 +01:00
### 1. Setting Up Unleash
2022-04-06 10:23:33 +02:00
2023-11-14 14:56:25 +01:00
To get started with Unleash, you need [`git` ](https://git-scm.com/ ) and [`docker` ](https://www.docker.com/ ) installed on your machine.
2022-04-06 10:23:33 +02:00
2023-11-14 14:56:25 +01:00
Execute the following commands:
2022-06-27 10:17:44 +02:00
```bash
2022-12-12 20:40:18 +01:00
git clone git@github.com:Unleash/unleash.git
cd unleash
2022-04-06 10:23:33 +02:00
docker compose up -d
```
2022-04-08 15:17:06 +02:00
Then point your browser to `localhost:4242` and log in using:
2022-06-27 10:17:44 +02:00
- username: `admin`
- password: `unleash4all`
2022-04-06 10:23:33 +02:00
2022-05-18 12:16:04 +02:00
If you'd rather run the source code in this repo directly via Node.js, see the [step-by-step instructions to get up and running in the contributing guide ](./CONTRIBUTING.md#how-to-run-the-project ).
2022-04-06 10:23:33 +02:00
### 2. Connect your SDK
Find your preferred SDK in [our list of official SDKs ](#unleash-sdks ) and import it into your project. Follow the setup guides for your specific SDK.
If you use the docker compose file from the previous step, here's the configuration details you'll need to get going:
2022-06-27 10:17:44 +02:00
2022-04-06 10:23:33 +02:00
- For front-end SDKs, use:
2022-12-12 20:40:18 +01:00
- URL: `http://localhost:4242/api/frontend/`
- `clientKey` : `default:development.unleash-insecure-frontend-api-token`
2022-04-06 10:23:33 +02:00
- For server-side SDKs, use:
2022-06-27 10:17:44 +02:00
- Unleash API URL: `http://localhost:4242/api/`
2022-04-06 10:23:33 +02:00
- API token: `default:development.unleash-insecure-api-token`
If you use a different setup, your configuration details will most likely also be different.
2021-06-04 19:31:28 +02:00
2024-05-27 09:46:26 +02:00
### Check a feature flag
2022-04-07 15:26:04 +02:00
2024-05-27 09:46:26 +02:00
Checking the state of a feature flag in your code is easy! The syntax will vary depending on your language, but all you need is a simple function call to check whether a flag is available. Here's how it might look in Java:
2022-04-07 15:26:04 +02:00
```java
if (unleash.isEnabled("AwesomeFeature")) {
// do new, flashy thing
} else {
// do old, boring stuff
}
```
2022-04-07 15:40:26 +02:00
### Run Unleash on a service?
If you don't want to run Unleash locally, we also provide easy deployment setups for Heroku and Digital Ocean:
[![Deploy to Heroku ](./.github/deploy-heroku-20.png )](https://www.heroku.com/deploy/?template=https://github.com/Unleash/unleash) [![Deploy to DigitalOcean ](./.github/deploy-digital.svg )](https://cloud.digitalocean.com/apps/new?repo=https://github.com/Unleash/unleash/tree/main& refcode=0e1d75187044)
2022-04-08 13:25:36 +02:00
### Configure and run Unleash anywhere
refactor: move docs into new structure / fix links for SEO (#2416)
## What
This (admittedly massive) PR updates the "physical" documentation
structure and fixes url inconsistencies and SEO problems reported by
marketing. The main points are:
- remove or move directories : advanced, user_guide, deploy, api
- move the files contained within to the appropriate one of topics,
how-to, tutorials, or reference
- update internal doc links and product links to the content
- create client-side redirects for all the urls that have changed.
A number of the files have been renamed in small ways to better match
their url and to make them easier to find. Additionally, the top-level
api directory has been moved to /reference/api/legacy/unleash (see the
discussion points section for more on this).
## Why
When moving our doc structure to diataxis a while back, we left the
"physical' files lying where they were, because it didn't matter much to
the new structure. However, that did introduce some inconsistencies with
where you place docs and how we organize them.
There's also the discrepancies in whether urls us underscores or hyphens
(which isn't necessarily the same as their file name), which has been
annoying me for a while, but now has also been raised by marketing as an
issue in terms of SEO.
## Discussion points
The old, hand-written API docs have been moved from /api to
/reference/api/legacy/unleash. There _is_ a /reference/api/unleash
directory, but this is being populated by the OpenAPI plugin, and mixing
those could only cause trouble. However, I'm unsure about putting
/legacy/ in the title, because the API isn't legacy, the docs are. Maybe
we could use another path? Like /old-docs/ or something? I'd appreciate
some input on this.

structure and fixes url inconsistencies and SEO problems reported by
marketing. The main points are:
- remove or move directories : advanced, user_guide, deploy, api
- move the files contained within to the appropriate one of topics,
how-to, tutorials, or reference
- update internal doc links and product links to the content
- create client-side redirects for all the urls that have changed.
A number of the files have been renamed in small ways to better match
their url and to make them easier to find. Additionally, the top-level
api directory has been moved to /reference/api/legacy/unleash (see the
discussion points section for more on this).
## Why
When moving our doc structure to diataxis a while back, we left the
"physical' files lying where they were, because it didn't matter much to
the new structure. However, that did introduce some inconsistencies with
where you place docs and how we organize them.
There's also the discrepancies in whether urls us underscores or hyphens
(which isn't necessarily the same as their file name), which has been
annoying me for a while, but now has also been raised by marketing as an
issue in terms of SEO.
## Discussion points
The old, hand-written API docs have been moved from /api to
/reference/api/legacy/unleash. There _is_ a /reference/api/unleash
directory, but this is being populated by the OpenAPI plugin, and mixing
those could only cause trouble. However, I'm unsure about putting
/legacy/ in the title, because the API isn't legacy, the docs are. Maybe
we could use another path? Like /old-docs/ or something? I'd appreciate
some input on this.
