Projects

The Projects page displays a grid, which lists all projects that have been created in Central or uploaded to your Central license. Creating a project using Central’s UI is a convenient way to make basic projects in the cloud. Users associated with the project can always import it later from Central to Flare if more advanced features are needed.

Uploaded projects are copies of the local projects located on users’ desktops. Some reasons to upload (i.e., bind) projects to Central, are the following: (1) You can let Central build and host your output, which means you can publish without having to involve an IT department; (2) the connection between your local project files in Flare and the cloned files on Central can be used as a source control solution, with branching integrated in various places in Central; and (3) you can use Central as a platform for topic reviews.

Regardless of whether you create a project in Central or upload it, you can do the following: (1) author, add, and edit project files directly in Central, with the ability to tap into the power of ChatGPT; (2) manage progress on topic development by using checklists; and (3) create a translation branch, using MadTranslations or a third-party language service provider to get translations done.
