How FlexOS works.
One article per part of FlexOS, written for founders.
Start here
- What FlexOS is: Flexi, a project, one plan: the whole thing in a page.
- Your first project: Three ways in, and what happens in the first minute.
- The workspace: The rail and its places, on a desktop and on a phone.
Working with Flexi
- Chats: A chat is one piece of work: naming, chips, files, replies, archive.
- Topics: Labels that filter what you see, never what Flexi sees.
- Work: Files, Doc, Tasks and Context: What each tab holds, and what Save to Library does.
- What Flexi can do: Build and change your site, read the web, make pictures, write documents. And what he hands to you.
Your project
- The Library: The project's agreed documents: tags, Recent and A–Z, bringing things in.
- The Repo: The whole repo as folders; Page, Source and Diff; ask about a file.
- Preview and going live: Live, every build, Put this live, and what each width shows.
- The Inbox: Your project's own email address, what lands there, and the welcome mail.
- Connections: Every service the project uses, its keys, and Set it up with Flexi.
- People: Who is on the project, the People chats, invites, and handing a project over.
Settings
- Project details: Name, tagline, the project id and address, and who can see the public page.
- Code: The repo, what Vercel builds, the roots, and Import a zip.
- Deployment: The address, your own domain, the mobile app, and agents.
- Keys and the Vault: Keys never come through the chat: the card, the guard, the Vault, and Deploy now.
- Billing: One plan per project, the free trial, the portal, and what a lapsed plan means.
Bringing things in
- Bring your website: Paste the address: what Flexi reads, keeps and rebuilds.
- Bring your code: A zip in: what goes to the repo, what goes to the Vault, what gets built.
- The phone app: A FlutterFlow export in the repo, Ship to the stores, the keys, and the builds.
People and help
- Flexperts: Real people on your actual pages: the directory, asking one, becoming one.
- Your profile: Your name, the cartoon you, light or dark, and your flexpert page.
Reference
- Plans and pricing: The one plan, the founding price, the trial, per project.
- What is not there yet: What Flexi hands to you, and what FlexOS does not do.
Questions
What is Flexi?
Flexi is the one you talk to in a project’s Chats. He plans with you, writes the Doc and Tasks beside the chat, changes your site’s code and puts it live. Tell him what you want in plain words.
Where is my website?
Every project is a real site from the first minute, at its own address. Preview on the rail shows it and every build; Settings › Deployment has the address and your own domain.
How do I use my own domain?
Settings › Deployment › Domain. Type the domain you own and follow the two lines it gives you to add at your domain provider. It goes live once they have spread, usually within the hour.
What are chats, the Doc and Tasks?
A chat is one piece of work with Flexi. Beside it, the Doc says what it is, what was decided and what is next, Tasks is its checklist, and Files is everything it made or you sent. Topics split a chat that grows a second subject.
What is the Library?
The project’s clean, agreed documentation: what it is for, who it is for, the brand, the plans. Flexi reads it on every turn. Ask him to turn what a chat produced into a Library doc when it is settled.
What is the Repo?
Your site’s code, in a GitHub repository that is yours. Flexi commits to it; you can open any file on the Repo rail item. Nothing is locked in: the code is yours to take anywhere.
How do I give Flexi a key or password?
Never paste one into a chat. Flexi asks with a card that saves straight into your Vault, or add it yourself in Settings › Vault. Your site gets it from its next build.
What is the project inbox?
Every project has its own email address, shown under the Inbox list. Forward a quote, a brief or a receipt to it and it lands there, kept with the project.
How much does it cost?
Each project starts with a free trial. After it, Flexi pauses until the project has a plan; your site and everything you made stay yours and readable. Settings › Billing shows the plan and the price.
Can I bring my existing code or app?
Yes. Start a new project from a code zip, your website’s address, or a FlutterFlow export, and Flexi sets the repo up from it.
Can someone help me build it?
Yes, a flexpert: someone we have worked with on FlexOS projects. Ask for one below and we will put you in touch.
