Defects Manager helps you maintain a clear catalogue of known defects, workarounds, and publication status for product documentation — independent of ControlZ, with local SwiftData storage on your Mac.
How it works
From defect intake through HTML documentation.
Capture title, description, workaround, app/version/build context, and ITIL-style status.
Mark items for HTML publish or developers-only visibility; browse open versus finished defects.
Bring in defect reports from files or folders using the shared Markdown defect format.
Export Markdown for review and generate HTML documentation for published defects.
Capabilities
Native SwiftUI for macOS with clear light and dark contrast.
Structured records with status badges, app/version filters, and focused edit forms.
Import defect reports from files or folders; compatible with feedback email and in-app defect formats.
Produce filterable HTML documentation for defects marked for publish.
Data stays on your Mac. No shared App Group with ControlZ required.
