Usage

There's no setup. Groups, Variations, and Goals are all created on demand. You should create a 'control' variation for each group, but it's not mandatory.

In templates::

{% if mv_profile.v.<group_name>.<variation_name> %}
Example:
    {% if mv_profile.v.landing_text.control %}
        We build custom web applications for small businesses.
    {% endif %}
    {% if mv_profile.v.landing_text.time_and_money %}
        We build custom web applications that save businesses time and money.
    {% endif %}
    
#record a goal success
{{ mv_profile.goal.<goal_name> }}
Example:
    {{ mv_profile.goal.newsletter_signup }}

In python::

profile = request.mv_profile
if profile.v().landing_text.control:
    #they see the usual text
if profile.v().landing_text.time_and_money:
    #they see something different
    
#record a goal success
profile.goal().newsletter_signup
