Unleash is a open source feature flag & toggle system, that gives you a great overview over all feature toggles across all your applications and services. It comes with official client implementations for Java, Node.js, Go, Ruby, Python and .NET Core.
Unleash is also available in an enterprise edition, which builds on top of the open-source version, with additional features. Go to [unleash-hosted.com](https://www.unleash-hosted.com/pricing) to learn more about the enterprise offering.
The main motivation for doing feature toggling is to decouple the process for deploying code to production and releasing new features. This helps reducing risk, and allow us to easily manage which features to enable
This repo contains the unleash-server, which contains the admin UI and a place to ask for the status of features. In order to make use of unleash you will also need a client implementation.
It's fine to have a system for turning stuff on and off. But some times we want more granular control, we want to decide who to the toggle should be enabled for. This is where activation strategies comes in to the picture. Activation strategies take arbitrary config and allows us to enable a toggle in various ways.
Sometimes you need more control than just a boolean flag. Variants provides this and can be used in combination of feature toggles and allow you to return multiple variants from a feature toggle, if it is enabled.
We have official SDK's for Java, Node.js, Go, Ruby and Python. And we will be happy to add implementations in other languages written by you! These libraries makes it very easy to use Unleash in you application.
The client SDKs provides a simple abstraction making it easy to check feature toggles in your application. The code snippet below shows how you would use `Unleash` in Java.
Unleash is open source and you are free to run your own instance. Please refer to the [getting-started-guide](https://docs.getunleash.io/docs/deploy/getting_started) to learn how to run the Unleash Service.
After numerous request we have created a separate company, Unleash-hosted, which offer Unleash as a Service. Unleash-hosted allows you to focus on you core business and have someone else taking care of hosting and maintaining Unleash.
Go to [unleash-hosted.com](https://www.unleash-hosted.com/pricing) to learn more about this offering and start using Unleash today. This service also includes official support.
If you want to contribute to this project you are encouraged to send issue request, or provide pull-requests. Please read the [unleash developer guide](./docs/contributing/developer-guide.md) to learn more on how you can contribute.
