What if Flowable has been upgraded to 7 but there is no compatible process designer? Do not want to design on the cloud

Hi @liliang, currently there are no plans for open source designer. May I ask you the reason why you don’t want to use cloud design?

@liliang anyways you can still use 6.x designer. Model you workflows using older version, export and import in engine.

I’m looking forward to see a non-cloud designer for flowable 7 as well. Main reason is, that I’m working in an environment, where it is not allowed to use cloud-tools for modelling productive cases.
