Microsoft Flow

Although SharePoint workflows are still supported in SharePoint Server 2019, Microsoft is not really maintaining them anymore because there is another kid on the block called Microsoft Flow. Microsoft Flow allows you to create automatic processes, called flows, that react to an event in one app or application (like SharePoint, Twitter, ...), do something with the event data, and then use this data in another service (like SharePoint, Salesforce, Twitter, ...). All this can be done without having to write a single line of code.
