Let's say you've heard about the benefits of using feature flags for gradual feature rollouts, and you're ready to adopt them in your organization. The next step would be deciding whether to "build or buy."

If you choose to develop your feature flagging tool, you'll need to figure out how to make it fetch, evaluate, and manage feature flags. If you want to use a third-party tool, you might have to learn and unlearn different APIs as you search for the right one.

Challenges like these inspired the creation of OpenFeature, a CNCF (Cloud Native Computing Foundation) project that aims to standardize feature flagging.

We'd like to share the story of how we successfully rolled out Config V2, the latest and most advanced version of ConfigCat. Let us take you behind the scenes and show you how we used our own tool to achieve a smooth and gradual rollout. Join us as we explain the steps we took to launch Config V2 and demonstrate how we "eat our own dog cat food".

Config V2 introduces New Comparators that make it much easier to create precise Targeting Rules by facilitating seamless comparison of texts, arrays, and dates.

Config V2 introduces a powerful new feature: AND conditions. These conditions enable you to create more sophisticated Targeting Rules, allowing for precise feature deployment based on multiple criteria.

We're proud to finally announce that Config V2 is going live soon! Config V2 is our all new feature management system that comes with great improvements over our last version. It's coming with a bunch of exciting goodies: fresh functionality, a revamped user interface, and increased user-friendliness to make navigating the system a breeze.

As you might have heard by now, the tech world is undergoing massive layoffs due to the looming recession. Big tech companies like Twitter, Meta, Google, and Amazon have all announced massive job cuts in the past few months. Software developers are on the receiving end in 2023, accounting for 20% of layoffs, according to data from workforce intelligence firm Revelio Labs.

Apart from the stress and anxiety it causes employees who were let go, layoffs can disrupt the rhythm of development teams and impact how projects move forward. The developers that survive layoffs are expected to keep everything running smoothly despite their smaller numbers. They'll have to explore strategies that will allow them to continue working efficiently and produce high-quality software without overworking themselves.

Software development workflows change over time, and they involve an organized plan of development tasks. Today, these tasks build up the software incrementally. The industry standard for tracking code changes is the source code management tool - Git. But, besides Git, there is another great thing that helps development teams. It is a feature management system. Read on to learn what a Feature Management System is, and its use in software development.
