“Open-source feature flags that you can self-host. SDKs for every language and the evaluation is fast.”
“Beautiful defaults that look professional immediately. The theming system makes brand customization straightforward.”
“Solved the component library problem by not being a library. The most practical approach to UI components.”
“80% of LaunchDarkly's features at a fraction of the cost. Self-hosting option means no vendor lock-in.”
