Welcome to FlagPole Docs

Flagpole is a powerful, developer-friendly feature flag management system that makes feature rollouts, A/B testing, and real-time updates a breeze. It's designed to solve the common challenges of feature management while keeping your git history clean and your deployment process smooth.

Overview​

Flagpole provides a comprehensive feature flag management solution that includes:

  • Real-time feature flag updates
  • A/B testing capabilities
  • Timezone-based rollouts
  • Simple SDK integration
  • Affordable pricing for teams of all sizes

Motivation​

Many development teams struggle with feature rollouts, often resorting to creating multiple branches to control feature releases. This approach leads to:

  • Messy git histories
  • Complicated merge conflicts
  • Difficult rollbacks
  • Increased deployment complexity
  • Poor visibility into feature status

Flagpole solves these challenges by providing a centralized, easy-to-use feature flag management system that decouples feature releases from code deployments.

Core Features​

Targeting Rules​

Flagpole provides powerful targeting capabilities through multiple condition types that can be combined using AND/OR operators:

Percentage Rollouts​

  • Gradually roll out features to a specified percentage of users
  • Maintain consistent targeting for individual users
  • Adjust rollout percentage in real-time

User Targeting​

  • Target by email addresses or email domains
  • User ID targeting for specific users
  • User type segmentation for different user categories

Time-based Rules​

  • Schedule by start and end dates
  • Timezone-specific deployments
  • Day of week targeting (0-6)
  • Hour-based activation
  • Supports all standard timezone formats

Geographic Rules​

  • Country-based targeting
  • Regional targeting within countries
  • Allow/deny list functionality for geographic regions

Device Targeting​

  • Browser-specific deployments
  • Operating system targeting
  • Version-specific rules
  • Mobile device targeting

Example targeting configuration:

interface TargetingRules {
  operator: "AND" | "OR";
  conditions: Array<{
    type: "percentage" | "user" | "time" | "geo" | "device";
    value?: number; // For percentage type
    rules?: {
      // User targeting
      email?: string[];
      emailDomain?: string[];
      userId?: string[];
      userType?: string[];

      // Time targeting
      startDate?: Date;
      endDate?: Date;
      timeZone?: string;
      daysOfWeek?: number[]; // 0-6
      hours?: number[]; // 0-23

      // Geographic targeting
      countries?: string[];
      regions?: string[];
      allowList?: boolean;

      // Device targeting
      browsers?: string[];
