About:
flagd is a feature flag daemon that provides a unified API for evaluating feature flags across various providers. It implements the OpenFeature specification, enabling consistent and vendor-agnostic feature management for cloud-native applications. The tool is designed to be lightweight and follows Unix philosophy principles.
Key Features:
  • OpenFeature-compliant implementation
  • Pluggable provider architecture (files, Kubernetes, etc.)
  • Multiple protocol support (gRPC, HTTP, JSON-RPC)
  • Declarative configuration via YAML/JSON
Use Cases:
  • Decoupling feature flag evaluation from application code
  • Centralizing feature flag management for microservices
  • Enabling progressive delivery and canary releases
Alternatives:
  • unleash – Unleash is a full-featured platform with a UI, while flagd focuses on being a lightweight, API-first daemon
  • launchdarkly – LaunchDarkly is a commercial SaaS platform, while flagd is an open-source alternative
