// Copyright (c) Microsoft. All rights reserved.

// This sample demonstrates how to run a workflow as a durable orchestration from a console application.
// The workflow consists of three executors: OrderLookup -> OrderCancel -> SendEmail.
// It uses the DurableExecutionEnvironment which is injected via DI.
//
// DURABILITY DEMONSTRATION:
// - Each activity has artificial delays to simulate real-world operations
// - Stop the app (Ctrl+C or stop debugging) during the OrderCancel activity (5 seconds)
// - Restart the application - the workflow will automatically resume!
// - The Durable Task Framework will skip already-completed activities (OrderLookup)
//   and continue from where it left off (OrderCancel)
