In https://github.com/statewright/statewright/blob/main/docs/im...

what's the difference between a "transition" (purple line, not shown in the workflow) as opposed to happy path / failure?

the colors are based on the event name.... green for happy path events (READY, DONE, PASS), red for failure events (FAIL, ERROR) and purple for everything else

they don't indicate whether the transition is guarded or not... that is shown in the sidebar when you click a state.

Suggestion, change the label to "other transitions"

My confusion was that happy path and failure are also transitions
