Concepts

A Task is a single executable function or bound method. Tasks have inputs and outputs defined by parameters and results of the functions.

Multiple interdependent tasks come together to form a Flow. Flows can have flow inputs and flow outputs. Flows are self-contained: all inputs come from another task or flow inputs, and all outputs flow into another task or flow outputs.

Multiple independent tasks come together to form a Parallel. Parallels do not have inputs or outputs.

Given a Flow or a Parallel, the Scheduler runs the different tasks, ensuring that tasks do not run before their dependencies.
