Overview
As an application designer, you use Process Studio, Avanteam's low-code tool, to create business applications without requiring complex development. The APS platform combines:
- Form modeling: Create rich user interfaces with custom fields, validation rules and responsive layouts
- BPMN workflows: Design automated business processes compliant with BPMN v1 standard
- Integrations: Connect your applications to third-party systems via REST APIs, web services and connectors
- Artificial intelligence: Integrate AI features like automatic classification (AIClass) and conversational assistance (Ask Me)
- Mobile solutions: Deploy your applications on iOS and Android with offline synchronization
- Best Practices: Use preconfigured business solutions ready to use
Recommended Reading Order
For optimal learning of application design with Process Studio, we recommend following this order:
- Start with getting started guides - Understand the fundamental concepts of Process Studio and APS architecture
- Then architecture and development - Acquire the technical foundations of the platform (.NET, ORM, data model)
- Next Process Studio - Forms - Learn to create forms, manage fields, configure business rules
- Continue with Process Studio - Workflows - Model BPMN processes and automate workflows
- Explore Process Studio - Navigation - Build menus and navigation views
- Deepen integrations and extensions - Connect your applications to third-party systems via APIs and web services
- Discover advanced features - Artificial intelligence, mobile development, migration tools
- Finally business solutions configuration - Customize Best Practices according to your needs
This logic follows the natural learning path: from fundamentals to advanced features, through essential design tools.
