Hi,

Is there a documentation that details the transition Activiti toward Flowable for existing Activiti based applications ?

Regards,

Hi,

When you move to Flowable v5 there is no transition, it should be a drop-in replacement.  
For v6 we have this document (work in progress) that describes the changes from v5 to v6:

[https://github.com/flowable/flowable-engine/blob/master/userguide/src/en/migration.adoc](https://github.com/flowable/flowable-engine/blob/master/userguide/src/en/migration.adoc)

Best regards,

Tijs
