Repository examples

The examples directory in the repository contains additional patterns:

• basic: combined set, wait, fork and HTTP in one workflow
• for-loop: iterating over arrays, maps and numbers
• child-workflows: calling one workflow from another
• query: exposing workflow state via Temporal queries
• update: read/write handlers for running workflows
• schedule: scheduled workflow triggers
• money-transfer: compensating transaction logic
• external-calls: HTTP and gRPC in a single fork
