Introduction

FlightStack is a self-hosted CI/CD platform built for Flutter. It lets you design build pipelines visually, run builds on your own hardware, and deploy to app stores automatically.

Why FlightStack?

Most CI/CD platforms require complex YAML configurations and charge per build minute. FlightStack takes a different approach:

• Visual pipeline editor - Drag and drop to create workflows
• Self-hosted agents - Run builds on your Mac, Linux, or Windows machines
• Unlimited builds - No per-minute charges
• Flutter-native - Built specifically for Flutter with iOS, Android, and web support
