Learn How Code References Helps You Eliminate Technical Debt

Filter for Any Repository and Branch

Teams who frequently feature flag releases know that a method for easily finding flags across multiple repositories and branches is key to efficiently managing flags.

Search for References by Alias

Not every team stores flag keys in the same way. The ability to search by alias ensures that you understand where flags are used and evaluated, so you never have a blind spot in your code.

Discover When Any Flag Was Last Referenced

No matter who on your team created a flag, keeping track of where code starts for a feature, knowing if the flag is actively being used, and understanding where that flag was last referenced if it's no longer in use, are all essential to having confidence in the state of every flag.

Feature management helps all software teams move quickly, with less risk. As you add more and more flags into a codebase, proper attention is required to maintain clarity into the state of your features. Code References is an essential tool for minimizing technical debt and ensuring a healthy feature lifecycle.
