FEEL for Citizen Developers

In any well-crafted end-to-end (E2E) process, you’ll likely find a variety of stakeholders with unique perspectives, seniority, involvement, and technical expertise. Using open standards like BPMN (Business Process Model and Notation) and DMN (Decision Model and Notation) can strengthen alignment and collaboration between IT and business stakeholders.?

FEEL (Friendly Enough Expression Language) is part of the DMN specification from the Object Management Group (OMG). It is designed to write expressions in a way that both business professionals and developers can easily understand. Learn more about FEEL in our Camunda 8 Docs.?

If you are new to FEEL and not a software engineer, have no fear! It really does live up to its name: it is straightforward to understand and use but powerful enough to define expressions in BPMN models, DMN diagrams, and Forms.?

In the blog post FEEL for Citizen Developers, Developer Advocate Nathan Loding discusses how to understand and work with data in FEEL as well as how you can evaluate your expressions in a FEEL Playground. You can also follow this video tutorial to see Nathan and FEEL in action!
