Flagd Initial Scope

Flagd is intended to be a lightweight feature flag control plane that's compliant with the OpenFeature specification. It's responsible for managing feature flag configurations and performing flag evaluations. Flagd is designed to support multiple deployment patterns (i.e. systemd, sysvinit, kubernetes).
