The K2 client components consist of the process designers that are installed on a client machine; the K2 designers include environments for Visual Studio, K2 designer for SharePoint and the K2 Studio. Each of these environments provide a connection to the server environment to expose information for use in building applications, such as connection variables and business entity information. In addition, the designers provide the ability to deploy new applications directly to the server environment. Multiple environments can be setup to handle the development lifecycle.
