You can export your FlutterFlow project’s code and bring it into Workshop for continued development. This gives you full control over the Flutter/Dart codebase with the ability to add custom packages, native plugins, and backend services. Workshop Desktop is strongly recommended for FlutterFlow imports, as Flutter development benefits from local toolchain access.

​
Step 1: Push Your FlutterFlow Project to GitHub

FlutterFlow supports pushing generated code to GitHub:
1

Open your project in FlutterFlow

Navigate to the project you want to export.
2

Go to GitHub settings

Navigate to Settings > Integrations > GitHub. Connect your GitHub account if you haven’t already.
3

Configure the repository

Select or create a GitHub repository. Choose the branch to push to (typically main or flutterflow).
4

Push the code

Click Push to Repository to export your project’s Flutter/Dart code to GitHub. Verify the code appears in your repository.
Copy the GitHub repository URL — you’ll need it in the next step. It looks like https://github.com/your-username/your-project.
Once you import your FlutterFlow project into Workshop and start making manual code changes, syncing back to FlutterFlow’s visual editor may cause conflicts. Plan to continue development primarily in Workshop going forward.

​
Step 2: Connect GitHub in Workshop

If you haven’t already connected your GitHub account to Workshop:
  1. Open Workshop Desktop and navigate to Hub > Connectors
  2. Click Connect on the GitHub connector
  3. Authorize the Workshop GitHub App and select which repositories to grant access to
  4. Confirm the connection
See GitHub Integration (Desktop) for detailed instructions.

​
Step 3: Create a Project from Your FlutterFlow Repository

  1. Click New Project from the Projects page
  2. Select Import from Git
  3. Choose your FlutterFlow repository from the list, or paste the repository URL
  4. Workshop clones the repository and creates your project

​
Step 4: Set Up and Run Your Project

Once the project is created, open a conversation and ask the agent to get your Flutter project running:
The agent will:
  • Verify Flutter SDK is available (or help you install it)
  • Run flutter pub get to install dependencies
  • Identify the target platform (web, iOS, Android)
  • Start the development server
Flutter development requires the Flutter SDK installed locally. Workshop Desktop’s terminal gives you full access to manage the Flutter toolchain. If you need to install Flutter, the agent can guide you through the process.

What You Can Do Next

With your FlutterFlow project now in Workshop, you can:

​
Deployment

For your imported FlutterFlow project, ask the agent to set up deployment appropriate for your target platform:
