Feature Flag System for Controlled Rollouts

[GuiBibeau]

Request Overview

We need a feature flag system to enable proper trunk-based development and eliminate the anti-pattern of long-lived feature branches. This will allow us to merge code continuously into main while controlling feature visibility through runtime flags rather than code branches.

What Would Be Helpful

• Toggle features without redeploying
• Percentage-based rollouts
• Target specific users or segments
• Quick emergency off switches
• Simple management interface

Would be great to have a specific piece of functionality ear-marked to do a trial implementation of a preferred solution here. With new integrations it's always good to have a light footprint for the first cut. Have you got any preferences for this @GuiBibeau . I've used LaunchDarkly in the past and it's been good, but if there's other better solutions would be good to discuss. Definitely a piece of tech we need in the stack though.
