Laika – Open Source Feature flag/toggle system w. slack integration

Hey everyone, Here is a link to the first version of an on-premise feature flag/toggle system, made with GO, that I developed at the company I'm working at (MEDIGO). It allows you to isolate features within your projects, and enable/disable them in multiple environments with a simple click in a dashboard. For instance if you just developed a new feature and you want to enable it on the testing environment, all you have to do is go to Laika's web page and activate the flag for the feature on this environment. Or if a bug is spotted on a feature already in production, disabling is…

    Hey all, I'm the founder of Flipt, an open-source (https://github.com/flipt-io/flipt) feature flag tool that I (and others) have been working on for the past few years. About a year or two ago we added support for serving flag state from various non-relational declarative stores like Git, OCI, Object Store, etc. Many of our users came to love the git-backed storage, as it allows them to keep their feature flags close to their code in there organization's repos. But they had one (rather large) ask, and that was the ability to use the UI to manage flag state changes and…

    Hi HN, I'm the creator of FFlags. I built this because I wanted a feature flagging system that gave me the performance and reliability of an enterprise-scale solution without the months of dev time or the vendor lock-in. The core ideas are: 1. Feature Flags as Code: You define your flag logic in TypeScript. This lets you write complex rules, which felt more natural as a developer myself than using a complex UI for logic. 2. Open Standard: The platform is built on the OpenFeature standard (specifically the Remote Evaluation Protocol). The goal is to avoid vendor lock-in and the usual…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
