We are trying to upgrade our code from 6.8.0 to 7.0.0.M1 but the Maven dependencies flowable-json-converter and flowable-ui-modeler-frontend seem to be missing with new version.
Are they replaced / superseeded by a different component? Is there any upgrade guide?
Like mentioned in the release notes we have done a first 7 version milestone release focusing on the engines and the Spring Boot and Java 17 upgrade. Therefore you are missing the modules you mention. For now we recommend to stay on the 6.x version if you are using the UI apps, and we will keep the 6.x versions in development for the next year as well.
That was a fast response
This is a decision that has not been made yet, this is something for 2023.
When there is more information we will communicate this on this forum.
We are working on a new 7.0.0 milestone that will keep focusing on the engines like in milestone 1. In the meantime we have released a Design application in the cloud for which you can signup for free and use that as a modeling environment (Model in the cloud | Flowable Design | Free). The open source UI applications of version 6 are using an outdated Angular 1 version, with lots of security issues etc. So that’s not something that we can continue in this way.
