First Look at Quadrant – Oslo’s Modeling Tool

Oslo is Microsoft's new Modeling Platform.  It is made up of a tool, a language, and a repository.  This video introduces you to the Quadrant.  Quadrant is the modeling tool for Oslo. 

This video walks though the user experience and shows how to work with and edit exiting models, drop workpads onto the workflow surface, add and edit data, and edit existing models (like processes).

This video runs 13:19 and is available for live play via Flash or for download via Windows Media Player.  If you would like to download this video, use the "Download Version".

Keep in mind this video is based on beta code and all content is subject to change.

    I know you can download the Oslo SDK (http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/oslo) but I’m not sure that includes Quadrant. I’m working off the VM that was handed out at PDC. I think the plans are to offer this more widely later on. In the short term, I don’t think you’ll have access to Quadrant. Stephen W. Thomas

    Hi, You can't download Quadrant yet. Who attend to PDC received a virtual machine with VS 2010 and It includes Quadrant, is the only distribution I know. There is a version of VS 2010 for download, but I don't know if is the same virtual machine with the same configuration, including Quadrant. []'s

    FYI: I downloaded Oslo SDK and it only contain M#. Quadrant is not part of that SDK.

    So did they adopt the BPMN (Business Process Management Notation) for drawing the processes?

    I’ve not heard of BPMN in the past.  But I have been out of some of the deeper, more recent Oslo conversations.

    Quadrant uses Workflow Foundation?

  • re: First Look at Quadrant – Oslo’s Modeling Tool

    No, Quadrent has its own UI.  I’m not aware of it using workflow under the covers.

    The hope is eventually you can build XAML Workflows by using Quadrent though.

    Hope this helps.
