CadenzaFlow Platform

First, download a distribution of the CadenzaFlow Platform. You can choose from different distributions for various application servers. In this tutorial, we’ll use CadenzaFlow Platform Run. Download it from the download page.

After downloading the distribution, unpack it inside a directory of your choice.

After you’ve successfully unpacked your distribution of the CadenzaFlow Platform, execute the script named start.bat (for Windows users) or start.sh (for Unix users).

This script will start the application server. Open your web browser and navigate to http://localhost:8080/ to visit the Welcome Page.

CadenzaFlow Modeler

Download the CadenzaFlow Modeler from the download page.

After downloading the Modeler, simply unzip the download in a folder of your choice.

After you have successfully unpacked the zip, run cadenzaflow-modeler.exe (for Windows users), cadenzaflow-modeler.app (for Mac users), or cadenzaflow-modeler.sh (for Linux users).

Next Step

Once you’ve installed the CadenzaFlow Platform and the CadenzaFlow Modeler, you can move to the next step to model and execute your first process.
