Looking for a good intro to Windows Workflow Foundation?
For most people, the best way to learn is by example. And that seems to be the creed behind "Foundations of WF" by Brian Myers. This book is short on theory and long on example as it takes the reader through scads of Windows Workflow Foundation activities.
It's a skinny book at just 224 pages plus index but no paper is wasted as the author fires up his first solution walk-thru on page 4. From there on, it's all code as the author builds on previous chapters to show how to use many WF activities.
Chapter 10 pulls together the previous sections with a final real world example: an Employee Performance Review application implemented in ASP.NET and SQL Server.
If you're looking for lots of WF theory and concepts, look elsewhere. But "Foundations of WF" by Brian Myers has much to offer to the kinesthetic learner. |
