Using TaskFlow¶
Considerations¶
Things to consider before (and during) development and integration with TaskFlow into your project:
- Read over the paradigm shifts and engage the team in IRC (or via the
openstack-dev mailing list) if these need more explanation (prefix
[Oslo][TaskFlow]to your emails subject to get an even faster response). - Follow (or at least attempt to follow) some of the established best practices (feel free to add your own suggested best practices).
- Keep in touch with the team (see above); we are all friendly and enjoy knowing your use cases and learning how we can help make your lives easier by adding or adjusting functionality in this library.
