While OpenFeature initially focused on support for server-side feature flagging, we know that a lot of feature-flagging (likely the majority) happens on the client - mobile apps and frontend web apps. As such, we're currently finalizing a proposal which extends the OpenFeature spec to support client-side use cases. By the way, if you're working on a feature flagging framework, whether it's commercial, open-source, or internal product, the folks at OpenFeature would love to hear more about how you approach client-side flagging.

In this post I'll summarize those changes, but to understand them in context we'll first talk about what makes client-side feature flagging different before diving into how that will impact the OpenFeature APIs.

Early this year, OpenFeature announced its intent to bring a standard to the rapidly growing development practice of feature flagging. In June it was accepted as a Cloud Native Computing Foundation Sandbox project. Now, we're pleased to announce a new milestone: OpenFeature has released 1.0 versions of its .NET, Go, Java, and JavaScript SDKs!
