What Is a Feature Flag?

A Feature Flag is a mechanism for turning functionality on or off without redeploying code.

Why Feature Flags Matter

Feature flags help teams:

  • release safely in smaller increments,
  • reduce rollout risk,
  • test features gradually,
  • separate deployment from release decisions.
