How to start using Camunda in embedded form?

Hi guys,
I’m getting started with Camunda BPM.
I’d like to integrate the engine with my application without using ready zip package (https://camunda.org/download/).
The plan is to find out if Camunda has all features what I need and is speed enough. I don’t need any separated apps such as Cockpit. I’m interested in Java API. I’d like to start the engine, add some processes, execute some human tasks and check how variables are presented in my DB. What’s the best way to do that?
In a future I will use Spring.

Please, be patient. Sure this is stupid question.

Hi,

Here’s how you create a process engine in Java code: https://docs.camunda.org/manual/7.6/user-guide/process-engine/process-engine-bootstrapping/#bootstrap-a-process-engine-using-the-java-api

There is also a full example using Spring available here: https://github.com/camunda/camunda-bpm-examples/tree/master/deployment/embedded-spring-rest

Cheers,
Thorben

I’ve found Spring Boot Demo on github. Thanks!
