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
1. Create a workspace — either as an individual or as a team with multiple members and roles 2. Create a project — via "+ New Project" in the left sidebar 3. Link a GitHub repo — create the repo on github.com, then in FlawDesk -> Project -> Settings -> "Code" tab enter the owner/repo path 4. Configure modules — a project has one or more modules (e.g. backend + frontend). For each module you set type, build command and deploy path 5. Enable FlawDesk Code (optional) — if you want to use Claude or ChatGPT as a development assistant, set up the MCP connector 6. Create and work through tickets — reference a commit with #123 or link the ticket directly to a commit via fixed-by
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) |
