FeatureHub is a Cloud Native platform to help software teams manage their features, from feature flags (also known as feature toggles) to A/B experiments and remote or centralised configuration. This is the primary source code repository for FeatureHub - if you want to help us resolve any outstanding issues, contribute a new SDK or just get a deeper understanding of how it works, this is the right place to be.

Important
|
If you like to install FeatureHub, please refer to install repository with configured docker images |
We selectively take cuts of this repository and build them into docker image sets. We then update the main install repository with the latest images and issues tags on that repository.
If you are just curious to see how FeatureHub works and would like to play with it there is a simple way of doing it, please follow instructions here.
Once you have decided to start using FeatureHub in your team, there are also several installation options depending on your use case, please read about these options here.
Please follow documentation here. The examples are located here in their own repository if you wish to have a starting example to work from.
-
Additional rollout strategies
-
Feature auditing

FeatureHub is an open source project, and we love to receive contributions from our community! There are many ways to contribute, from writing tutorials or blog posts, improving the documentation, submitting bug reports and feature requests or writing code which can be incorporated into FeatureHub itself.
Our main contribution repository is located here.
If you have reviewed the Architecture section of the FeatureHub documentation you will notice there are several components. FeatureHub is designed this way to allow to scale from a single application option to large organisations serving billions of requests for features per day.
The Management Repository, Dacha (the Cache layer) and Edge (where all clients connect via their service accounts) are all written in Java. This allows us to build fully scalable software. In our simple examples, it all deploys together in one simple bundle. In complex examples it can all be sliced apart, sharded and massively scaled. Apart from Java, we use a few other technologies as well which will help OpenAPI, JAX-RS (specifically Jersey), Maven (specifically with Maven Tiles), and Ebean for our ORM.
Java was also chosen amongst the JVM stack because of its ability to allow the greatest number of people to
contribute. The pom.xml in the main repository to allow for easy loading and local installation
of the project. It is called a reactor.
If you want to go more advanced, we also support Prometheus, Health Checks, OpenTracing and Jaeger.
The Admin front end is written in Flutter Web. This choice gives us a wide range of platforms (Web, mobile, native platforms) we can target from the same codebase. Currently, Web platform is our priority. If you want to contribute to the Admin Console - we would love you to join us!
If you are planning on helping us by building an SDK in a language we don’t yet support, please refer to this doc. We are happy to get contributions that slowly add full functionality for a new language.
