The first thing I want to explore is branching. Branching, adds conditional logic to the BPF, which in turn affects the process steps. In our example that we've been working with, let's suppose that there are different process steps that need to happen based on the age of the car. With branching, we can use the year of the car as the condition, and move to alternate stages depending on the answer. Let's draw this out to see it better. Here's the current flow process.
