[rules-users] Building our own UI for Drools

[benq2188]

Hello Ivan, wondering that have you found any solution for your requirements?

I want to design UI which suggests options to the user for adding,modifying
and deleting rules. Within drools final 5.4.0 version, writing rules in xml
format is depreciated, so I thought to save user input data as rules inside
a .drl file with our own translation from UI. Seems it will take time, we
need to consider creating rules either first degree or  n-degree(several
conditions and actions for each rule). As you said it wont be
straightforward. 

Any solutions to deal with it?

Thanks in advance.
