Projects

The Projects page displays a grid, which lists all projects that have been created in Flare Online or uploaded to your Flare Online license. Creating a project using Flare Online’s UI is a convenient way to make basic projects in the cloud. Users associated with the project can always import it later from Flare Online to Flare Desktop 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 Flare Online, are the following: (1) You can let Flare Online 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 Desktop and the cloned files in Flare Online can be used as a source control solution, with branching integrated in various places in Flare Online; and (3) you can use Flare Online as a platform for topic reviews.

Regardless of whether you create a project in Flare Online or upload it, you can do the following: (1) collaboratively author, add, and edit project files directly in Flare Online, 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.
