.net 3.5 - Windows Workflow Dynamic, User-Created Workflows -
I have a client who is interested in using (WF) technology in a web-driven application. I have a .NET Developer, but I have no experience with the WF or SharePoint workflow. Most of the customers who want to do are straight-forward, except that they want the end users to be able to create / edit their own custom workflow. In my brief research in WF, it does not seem like how this generally works, is it possible that users are allowed to create workflows themselves, or is it really a custom ASP.NET MVC application, or maybe Is that a SharePoint application?
Users are considered to be one of the stron points of WF to be able to change the workflow. However, the whole model with WF3 has been prepared for code generation and is not a markup, so it is hard to do. It is not impossible because you can use pure markup workflow but it is difficult.
This story is considered very good with WF4 because all workflows are pure markup and no code is included in it. All codes are in predefined activities, which have been compiled and the user can change workflows as required. In addition, WF Designer is easy to repurchase in your own application.
The PS SharePoint workflow is WF3 workflow, even in the new SharePoint version, and WF4 is a completely new product that does not share anything code.
