Context

The Variable Manager is part of camunda-bpm-sdk-js and helps to handle variables in Tasklist

Problem

The documentation is not very elaborate about the Variable Manager: Mostly code examples are shown

Solution

Provide more in-depth documentation about the variable manager:

• Explain how to set transient variables
• Difference between $scope.complete() and $scope.camForm.submit()
• Can the variable manager be used outside the form lifecycle context? (e.g., to directly set variables)

Hints

Please find below the existing documentation about the variable manager:
