First challenge

Ok so my first challenge is going to be adding some custom webforms to a workflow process within Sharepoint.

The guys had explained workflows to me. Essentially its an approval process for a document. I've found a couple of links to help me out

We have a third party workflow designer which outputs the xaml code called Nintex.

Hopefully today i will get my development environment running on virtual server. You can't debug sharepoint code remotely you have to be working on the server! Therefore i need a virtual server, installed with sharepoint and visual studio and all the various components.

So far its taken 3 days to get everything i need together and installed on my desktop !
