When Windows Workflow first came out there were some articles that suggested that it could also be used to control the flow in the UI. One example is this one.
But I have not been able to find any newer articles about this.
So the question: Has anyone had any success with this approach? Or was it one of those things that turned out not to be such a good idea after all?
Our client is WPF with Prism.
I think it depends on the type of site. Microsoft built their support site using a Wizard activity structure due to the complexity of the rules and to enable business users to directly manage the control flow. I have not found a good use case for actually using WF to control the presentation or business rules. It is much easier to use a well-known pattern (MVC / MVVM) to construct your application. For simple site flows – you are probably better off without the added complexity.
