# What is flagd? | ||
|
||
_flagd_ is a _feature flag evaluation engine_. | ||
You can think of it as the "guts" of a full-featured flag management solution. | ||
It allows you to dynamically evaluate feature flags. | ||
|
||
With flagd you can: | ||
|
||
* modify flags in real time | ||
* define flags of various types (boolean, string, number, JSON) | ||
* use context-sensitive rules to target specific users or user-traits | ||
* perform pseudorandom assignments for experimentation | ||
* perform progressive roll-outs of new features | ||
* aggregate flag definitions from multiple sources | ||
|
||
It doesn't include a UI, management console or a persistence layer. | ||
It's configurable entirely via a POSIX-style CLI. | ||
Thanks to it's minimalism, it's _extremely flexible_; you can run flagd as a sidecar alongside your application, or as a central service evaluating thousands of flags per second. |
