Video - What is Flex?
February 26th, 2008 . by polyGeekIf you’re a Flash developer/designer and you’ve ever tried to explain to someone what Flash is you probably got about as far as mentioning keyframes before you started seeing glazed eyes.
The same is true of Flex. If you’ve never seen it there can be a lot of confusion as to exactly what it is and how you use it. I put this short ( less than 10 min ) video together to cover the three essentials:
- Flex Builder
- MXML
- the Flex Framework
This isn’t a video that goes into any depth on writing code. It’s just a quick glance behind the curtain, so to speak.

And no, I couldn’t resist The Matrix reference. I didn’t even really try. ;-)
At Ted Patrick’s request I posted this video to youTube with the 30OnAir tag. I hope he didn’t request that just to make me look like a fool. :-)












can you post this to youtube “30onair”
@Ted, what? Is my blog not good enough for you? :-)
It’s posted. I’m working on something else in the 30 second range.
Digging around the interwebs, Polygeek rocks a ten minute tutorial that explains what Flex is. For the programming inclined, its an awesome app. Check out the tutorial by clicking on this link …
