📄️ Evaluation API

The Evaluation API is the primary component of OpenFeature that application authors interact with.

Providers are responsible for performing flag evaluations.

The evaluation context is a container for arbitrary contextual data that can be used as a basis for dynamic evaluation.

Hooks are a mechanism that allow for the addition of arbitrary behavior at well-defined points of the flag evaluation life-cycle.

Events enable the ability to react to state changes in the provider or underlying flag management system.

OpenFeature SDKs come in two "flavors"; those intended for use in server applications and those intended for use in client applications.

Tracking in OpenFeature is the process of associating metrics or KPIs with feature flag evaluation contexts.
