Comment on Principles for building and scaling feature flag systemsparent

Comments

I am tempted to agree: if separating the two is key (I’m not convinced that it is, but happy to assume) why not copy the interface and the infrastructure of the feature flag and offer it as a configuration tool.

I feel like you could easily add a status to flags, to mark whether they are part of a release process, or a permanent configuration tool, and in the latter case, take them off the release interfaces.

I think unleash offers "toggle type" which can take values that describe whether it's a pure feature flag, something operation, config, etc.
