Workflow Core is a lightweight, embeddable workflow engine for .NET Standard that orchestrates long-running processes with state tracking across multiple tasks. It supports fluent C#, JSON, and YAML workflow definitions, pluggable persistence and concurrency providers for multi-node clusters, and saga-style transaction handling with error retry.
Use cases
- build long-running multi-step processes in .NET
- implement saga transactions with retry and compensation
- define workflows in JSON or YAML DSL
- track state of user onboarding workflows
- run distributed workflows across multi-node clusters
- wait for external events mid-workflow
When to choose
- you need an embeddable workflow engine inside a .NET application
- you want saga-style error handling and retries for multi-step business processes
- you need pluggable persistence and multi-node concurrency support
When to avoid
- you need a stand-alone workflow server with an API rather than a library
- your project is not on .NET / .NET Standard
- you need heavyweight BPMN-compliant orchestration
