Flex 2 review
June 30th, 2006 . by polyGeek
People are saying good things about Flex today.
Exerpt:
With less than 10 lines of code, developers can add the new WebService component into a Flex application and connect to a Web service without binding to any server-side code. No other technology on the market, including DHTML and Ajax, provide such an elegant and robust Web client solution.
Moreover, MXML–the language on which the Flex 2 framework runs–takes such a minimalist approach to developing Web UIs that it beats Ruby and all other Java Web frameworks hands down. So it’s worth your while to try rich Internet application programming with Flex 2. You’ll think twice before using Java or any server-side scripting language to write Web UIs.
I’m thinking about getting flex, sounds like an interesting program.
I just plopped down $750 + tax for it tonight. I got Flex and FlexCharting. It’s a hard pill to swallow paying that much for software but it’s a good investment. There’s no doubt that I’ll be doing Flex and Flash for a living for some time. And it’s a pretty good living. :-)
