Getting Started - Flex 3 @Adobe

Getting Started - Flex 3 Getting Started - Adobe Learning Resources

Introduction

What is Adobe Flex? Like Flash, Flex creates SWF files that are rendered by Flash Player. However, Flex is primarily a developer's tool and the way you develop Flex applications is entirely different than the way you develop Flash RIAs. All Flex development is based upon a framework that provides you with reusable and extendable UI components, data retrieval services, event handling functionality and much more. You can create RIAs in a familiar code-centric environment, but you still reap the benefits of Flash applications, which include:

  • The ability to design and implement human-centered user interfaces without worrying about browser limitations.
  • A runtime environment with almost 100% deployment to all Internet users.
  • The powerful ActionScript programming language.
  • The ability to integrate rich media like streaming video and sound.
