No code product experimentation using layers on Statsig
Blog post from Statsig
Statsig offers a solution for running product experiments without constant code changes through its feature called Layers, which allows variables or parameters to be shared across multiple experiments. Once a Layer is integrated into an app's code, experiments can be initiated, stopped, or modified through the Statsig console without further code adjustments. This method is particularly beneficial for mobile app experimentation, where app store approvals and versioning can slow iteration. Within a Layer, default parameters are provided to users unless experiments specify otherwise, and experiments can dynamically adjust parameters such as "Rating Color" without affecting other shared parameters. The process includes a visual representation of user allocation, and results can be analyzed and applied to update default parameters if desired. Statsig also provides a Power Analysis calculator to help determine the necessary population size for effective experimentation, emphasizing a streamlined approach to product experimentation.
