Flagsmith lets you manage features across web, mobile and server side applications. Flagsmith is Open Source. Host yourself or let us take care of the hosting.
The application consist of 3 components:
To get up and running, you can either use https://flagsmith.com/ for 1 and 2 above, or you can self host the API and Front End. Once you have these components up and running, you can add the client libraries to your apps and start managing your features remotely.
