- In Project Server 2010, Project developers were empowered to create governance workflows in Visual Studio that enabled complex lifecycles for the demands. Ms have taken major steps to significantly improve this experience in the 2013 release: SharePoint Designer: You can now create Project workflows in SharePoint Designer in addition to Visual Studio. Project Online: Ms are enabling Workflow Controlled Projects on both on-premises and online PWA instances.
