Read OriginalThis article introduces feature flags (also known as toggles or flippers) as a development technique for releasing new features in a controlled manner. It explains how they help avoid risks of long-lived branches, allow for testing with specific user groups like QA or marketing, and enable a polished release. The piece uses a practical example and introduces the django-waffle library for implementing this pattern in Django projects.
