Activity Designer	A designer to customize the design-time experience of an activity. Selecting this item adds the same files to the project as you would obtain when selecting the Activity Designer Library template for a new project. For more information about on this procedure, see How to: Create an Activity Designer Library.
Code Activity	An activity with execution logic written in code. A source code file with an override of the Execute method is already generated for you.
WCF Workflow Service	A WCF service built using workflow activities. Selecting this item adds the same files to the project as you would obtain when selecting the WCF Workflow Service Application template for a new project.
