Book description
This Short Cut is all about getting up and running with Adobe Flex 2; a perfect title would be "(Almost) Everything You've Ever Wanted to Know about Flex 2 But Were Afraid to Ask." It consists of conversational instruction, along with demonstrative examples, in order to give developers an efficient grounding in how to get their arms around using Flex 2. Especially helpful for those coming from the Flex/AS/Flash universe, but also designed for those coming from Java, .Net, and elsewhere. Six small sections cover:
Quick background on Flex 2
What's new in ActionScript 3.0
How to use Flex right out of the box (so to speak)
"Making It Look Good": Design and UI issues
Extending Flex
Little-known features and capabilities
