Feature Flag Transition & Setup Guide

What's this blog post about?

This guide provides a step-by-step process to integrate LaunchDarkly into an application for feature flagging management. The transition involves new team member orientation, selecting a coordinator, separating feature flags from configuration values, cleaning up technical debt by removing old flags, identifying components to be flagged, setting up feature flags, and inviting the team to start releasing faster with less risk. LaunchDarkly offers well-documented SDKs for various platforms and provides features such as user targeting, percentage rollouts, multivariate flags, and a REST API for importing existing flags. The guide emphasizes the importance of understanding feature flagging fundamentals and best practices to ensure a successful integration process.
