Django Waffle vs. Feature Toggle

I would recommend that engineers look to try Django Waffle for feature development within a team setting; it really streamlines flipping features on and off for testing. I think the simplicity of Django Waffle is pretty great, but it may be a limitation for those developing far more complex products.

It's helpful that the tool takes URL parameters into account but that requires the URL structure to be of desired quality, to begin with. This tool is best suited for those working off of solid foundation in terms of web presence

• Limit software options - prevents rework time
• Allows for beta testing - allows for better later buy-in

• Not as complex as Gutter, albeit suitable for most product needs that I've encountered

• More help/how-to literate or use cases.
• Conditional logic could be improved.
• More dynamic interface.

I'm not sure about the support ....we didn't use it.

I found Django Waffle to work seamlessly with my Django-native codebase, and the implementation was extremely fast and intuitive. Gargoyle offers a bit more in the way of building more complicated code segments, but it's also more complex to implement. I use Django Waffle for nearly every project involving feature flipping.

Togglz has more detailed documentation and recurring updates. But the Togglz default setting to "HTTP" caused some glitches.

• Easy to show clients different feature options without rewriting the whole codebase
• Faster feedback loops during testing
• Good for synchronizing team effort across the codebase

• The cost of a programmer is certainly a ticket to budget. Neg
• The cost savings of limiting operational database errors is certainly more positive than the negative just mentioned.
