Manage runtimes, databases, web servers, local sites and HTTPS from one desktop app on Windows, macOS and Linux — with AI coding tools and MCP built in.
Why FlyEnv
Start PHP, MySQL, Redis and Nginx from the same app without building a container stack first.
Open a project once and manage its runtimes, services, local site and AI context from one view.
Switch the PHP, Node.js or Python version for one project without changing every other project.
Create a local site and trusted HTTPS URL without editing the hosts file or running mkcert by hand.

Supported technologies
A focused set of runtimes, databases, servers, and AI tools on the homepage. The full catalog stays one click away.
AI coding workspace
Your AI coding client works in the same local environment as your project—not a separate virtual setup. Let Claude Code, Codex and other MCP clients work with the same runtimes, services and local sites already managed by FlyEnv.
