General Development with FlawDesk
FlawDesk is project management, ticket system and development platform in one. Instead of managing code, issues, deployments and AI tools across five different services, everything lives in the same workspace.
What FlawDesk takes off your plate
- Tickets & project management — bugs, features, tasks per project, with comments, tags and permissions
- Code hosting integration — connect your GitHub repo to the project, and FlawDesk links commits to tickets automatically
- Build & deploy — push-to-build pipelines for web (PHP/Node/static), Windows apps (.NET via GitHub Actions), Android apps (Capacitor or native via GitHub Actions) and iOS apps (Codemagic)
- AI integration (FlawDesk Code) — Claude.ai or ChatGPT get direct access to your server through an MCP connector: read files, change code, start builds, fetch logs — all from the chat
- Help center — curated guides (you're reading one right now)
The typical workflow
From zero to a running platform it is five steps — each with its own guide:
1. Set up your account & workspace — sign up, save the recovery code, create a workspace, invite your team 2. First project and tickets — create a project, tickets, status, comments, links 3. Connect a server — your own server via SSH or your own computer with FlawDesk Local 4. Connect GitHub — install the FlawDesk App, link the repository, clone 5. Modules & first deploy — create modules, sticky files, build & deploy
If you only want to manage tickets you are done after step 2. Optionally afterwards: set up the AI connector so that Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor work directly in your project.
Understanding the three pillars
Workspace. Container for everything. Member management, permissions, workspace-wide settings.
Project. Lives inside a workspace, has its own tickets, its own GitHub repo, its own build configuration.
Module. A deployable artifact within a project. A SaaS app often has frontend + backend + optionally mcp-server as three modules in the same repo.
When do I need what?
| You want to... | You need... |
|---|---|
| just manage tickets | workspace + project |
| deploy a web app | workspace + project + modules + GitHub repo |
| build a mobile app | as above + Android or iOS module |
| let Claude/ChatGPT work on your server | as above + FlawDesk Code (MCP connector) |
