Other Platform Support

Question

Is Workflow supported on other platforms ( e.g. Windows Phone, WinRT, etc. )?  If not, is there plans to add and work with the new Portable Class Library?

Answer 1

Hi,

Generally, we won't host a long running workflow application or re-host designer on Windows Phone. However, a Windows Phone can leverage the power of workflow. Below is a sample, for your reference:

Workflow Services and Windows Phone 7

As Workflow is .NET CLR based, it can work together with WinRT.

Workflow is partly supported on other platforms, for the new features of Workflow, you can refer to:

I hope this information helps, thanks.
