There are a number of issues involved in properly managing feature flags and/or application settings.

- Retro-actively, it is often a mystery why a certain setting has been changed and by whom

- Synchronizing settings across multiple environments (testing/production) is not obvious.
 
To solve this, we are looking for a new system that can solve these issues for us. Here we are thinking of a system from which the application can retrieve the current settings and which also has a dashboard of where someone can change settings with an explanation of why. This dashboard can then also display the history of a particular setting.

Settings management is less simple than it sounds. As a result, we are looking for a new/better way to tackle this.
The scope of the assignment is to build a new tool for this. The initial focus is an MVP version where the functionality is important. Possible extensions afterwards is to improve the layout and extend the feature set (authentication / multitenant / ...).
 
At the end of the project we would like to see the tool running on a server with the option to manage settings for an application with at least two environments.

The main functional requirements are:

- Web dashboard settings
Overview of current settings
Adjust a setting => time, user name, reason for adjustment are tracked
View history of a specific setting
Synchronize settings across multiple environments (research phase before implementation to define approach)
Authentication to identify current user / security (first version can in principle with manual username input)

- Api settings
Retrieve current settings
Authentication to identify api user / security (can be included last)
Depending on research synchronization additional tools to support infrastructure automation tools (e.g. terraform / puppet / ...)
