## About the changes Refactor the main nav, with the following goals: * Communicate the value of each section vs the format (ex: “Understanding Unleash” vs “Topic Guides”) * Make space for the Feature Flag tutorials section that we’re starting to build * Scope updates to navigation and pages that need updates based on new URLs & organization * Update URLs to follow the new hierarchy without breaking links (adding redirects & editing internal links between pages as needed) ### Important files sidebar.js docusaurus.config.js ## Discussion points * Redirects can't be tested out of prod, which is a bummer :/ * Some URLs have been preserved untouched while we monitor for potential negative SEO impact of client-side redirects * It's a large PR (sorry). Nav changes and file movements impacted lots of files. --------- Co-authored-by: Thomas Heartman <thomas@getunleash.ai>

| Dependent Features |
:::info Availability
Dependent features were first introduced in Unleash 5.7 for Pro and Enterprise users. :::
Overview
Dependent features allow to define a child feature flag that depends on a parent feature flag.
A feature flag can have only one parent dependency but multiple child flags can share the same parent. For a child flag to be activated, its parent dependency must be enabled.
Parent dependency criteria
- Project Association: Both parent and child flags should belong to the same project.
- Single Level Dependency: The parent flag can’t have its own parent, ensuring a straightforward, single-level dependency.
Managing dependencies
Adding
Introduce dependencies either through the UI or API, also applicable when copying a child feature with an existing parent dependency.
Removing
Eliminate them through the UI or API. Dependencies are also removed when archiving a child feature. A parent feature can’t be removed if it would leave a child feature orphaned. To remove both, batch archive them. If Unleash confirms no other child features are using the parent, archiving proceeds.
Permissions
The Update feature dependency project permission, auto-assigned to admin and project members, allows managing dependencies.
Metrics calculation
Metrics are influenced solely by the evaluation of child features.
