Camunda Node.js External Task Client 0.1.0-alpha Released

We are so excited to announce what the team has been cooking for the past few weeks: camunda-external-task-client.js, a Node.js client for Camunda External Tasks!

Custom Queries

Why Custom Queries? The process engine offers a pretty straightforward and easy to use Java Query API.
