Thanks, "I could build that" → "oh, that's what the other 90% is" is pretty much how Unleash started for us too. What does your homegrown version do? Always interested in where people draw the line between building and adopting.

If it's settings, its better off being in your apps settings rather than implemented as a long running feature flag.
Feature flags are meant to be temporary.

Well, I mean.. settings can also be temporary. Could be constants or from the DB, etc.

Perfect candidate for a FF if it really is temporary. I have my own personal rule. If the FF lives beyond a certain amount of time, it gets turned into a setting.
Your platform has that and a ton of other things that would be useful for larger platforms, but it would be a pain to develop when you're already building a complicated roadmap.
