Hi everyone out there! This is another post about the jBPM Console NG. After 6 months of heavy work I’m happy to be writing this post for the developers community to try it out. On this post I will be explaining how to build the application from the sources. The main idea behind this is to know how to set up your environment and modify the application while your testing it. You will basically learn all you need to know to contribute with the project.
Most of the times the Front Ends Applications which are built on top of Process Engines contains a fair amount of screens/components dedicated to deal with Human Interactions. On this post the requirements to build these panels will be dissected to define which bits are important. The main idea behind this analysis is to be able to evolve the current state of art of the Human Interactions screens/components to the next level.
This year, jBPM5 was one of the lucky projects which was accepted in the Google Summer of Code Program. The topic of this year was to build a customizable and pluggable Human Task Lifecycle mechanism to extend the current functionality.
Demian Calcaprina is doing a wonderful job researching different alternatives to provide the mentioned features plus giving the project new ideas about how things can be improved.
