About

Flagbit is an open source feature flag library for Python with a simple goal: make it easy to turn features on and off, everywhere.

It’s inspired by Django Admin, simple to set up, batteries included, and designed to give you a central place to manage things that otherwise get messy.

With Flagbit you get:

• a clean Python API for backend usage,
• an HTTP API so your frontend (or any service) can fetch flag states,
• and a flexible logic layer that keeps everything consistent across your stack.

Instead of scattering if some_feature_enabled: checks throughout your code, you define flags once and consume them anywhere.

Key ideas:

• 🗄 Database agnostic: use any database you like for flag storage.
• 🎛 Centralized overrides: frontend or backend can override behavior safely.
• 🌍 API everywhere: expose flags over HTTP so any codebase, not just Python, can use them.
• 🔮 Future-ready: the API design paves the way for SDKs in other languages, so your whole system can share the same flag infrastructure.

The goal is a full-stack feature flagging solution that feels natural in Python, is easy to adopt today, and grows with you tomorrow.
