Windows Workflow Foundation Resources

Since I´ve been working with Windows Workflow Foundation (Project BHAL), I´ve gathered quite a list of resources (most by Bart de Smet I must admit).

I´d like to share with you guys.

About Windows Workflow Foundation:

Learning Guide by Brent Sheets - The most comprehensive pack of resources I´ve ever seen on Windows Workflow Foundation. A MUST SEE!

Windows Workflow Foundation MSDN Resources - Lots of resources on Windows Workflow Foundation

10 reasons why Windows Workflow Foundation isn´t a toy - Great article by Paul Andrew that tells us why Windows Workflow Foundation is a great PRODUCT by Microsoft.

Workflow Foundation Learning - I DID IT! - A blog post I wrote about some great articles I read about Workflow Foundation

Lots of links on Windows Workflow Foundation - A lot of links on WF, mainly blogs of people who blog about it.

Let´s Get to the Code Part:

Scott Allen has provided a lot of useful articles in the WF area. Here they are:

  1. Hello, Workflow
    An introduction to Windows Workflow (WF) by Scott Allen.
  2. Authoring Workflows
    Windows Workflow offers a number of options for authoring workflows. We write workflows entirely in XAML, entirely in code, or with a combination of both. This article examines various approaches and provides detailed information on each style. By Scott Allen.
  3. Windows Workflow: The Base Activity Library
    This article looks at Windows Workflow base activity library. From the CallExternalMethodActivity to the WhileActiviy, and everything in between. By Scott Allen.
  4. Hosting Windows Workflow
    This article shows how to configure and use the scheduling, persistence, and tracking services provided by Windows Workflow. We also look at the tracing and diagnostic features of the runtime. By Scott Allen.
  5. Windows Workflow: Rules and Conditions
    A look at using conditions and declarative rules in Windows Workflow. By Scott Allen.
  6. State Machines In Windows Workflow
    This article describes how to design, implement, and track state machine workflows in Windows Workflow. By Scott Allen.

Writing Tracking Services for Windows Workflow Foundation - Very good article on developing a Custom Tracking Service for Windows Workflow Foundation.

State Machine Workflows in Windows Workflow Foundation - Article that explains how to develop a state machine workflow and solve the requirements of a case.

WF - Working with Persistence Services - Great Article by Bart that tells you how to work with persistence services of Windows Workflow Foundation

WF - Working with Tracking Services - Again Bart helps us by telling you how to work with the Tracking Services

Window Workflow Foundation Runtime Services: The Persistence Service - Very nice article by Jesus Rodriguez on the Persistence Service and writing your own.

Custom WorkflowPersistenceServices - Another great article by Manuel Foerster on the Persistence Service and writing your own.

Windows Workflow Foundation: Everything About Re-Hosting the Workflow Designer - This is a must read for anyone that wishes to reuse the designer of Windows Workflow Foundation. Very nice article by Vihang Dalal, a Software Development Engineer Test at Microsoft.

Atlas Workflow Designer - Jon Flanders developed a insanely cool Atlas Workflow Designer that mimics the functionality of the Windows one.

MSMQ Workflow Activities, V1 - Great Workflow Activities to add if you need msmq interaction.

MsmqListenerService Concerns - Concerns about the whole architecture behind the MSMQ Listener Service.

SqlTrackingQuery Sample - Sample that demonstrates how to query the tracking database if it´s in Sql Server.

Working with Windows Workflow Foundation in ASP.NET - Great article on using a MVP pattern for implementing Windows Workflow Foundation in ASP.Net.

Hands-on Labs for Windows® Workflow Foundation Release Candidates - Some exercises and sample code for learning WF.

Tools

Upgraded my Atlas (ok now ASP.NET AJAX) Workflow Monitor - Great Tool by Joe Flanders that displays the current state of a Workflow Instance.

Ghenadie's HTML Workflow Editor - Another very good workflow editor that mimics the behavior of the Workflow Designer.

Well, for now that´s all, but I´ll be updating the list as I find more interesting links.
