Configuration

All settings live under the miragon.bpmnModeler namespace. Edit them in VS Code's settings UI (search for "BPMN Modeler") or directly in settings.json.

Commands

Beyond settings, the extension contributes several commands to the palette — all prefixed BPMN Modeler:. See Getting Started for the common ones.

Element templates

Element templates follow the Camunda element-templates schema and are resolved by convention. No project config file required. See the Element Template Chooser page for details on template discovery and the UI for applying them.
