Flex for Java developers (at the BreizhJUG)
Yesterday I had the chance to present at the BreizhJUG (a Breton Java user group) a session named "Flex for Java Developers". A crowd of almost 100 happy Java developers and architects was willing to know more about Flex.
I had an an hour and half to cover :
a basic presentation of the flash and AIR platforms,
cool UX flash/flex/AIR demos
the latest great features of flash 10
and flex, and its ecosystem from a Java developer perspective (mvn framework, testing libraries, building and quality tools, blazeds, lcds)
I ended up the session presenting fna maven archetypes. I prepared some new fna features for this talk. Those features are still under development but are already available in SNAPSHOT releases :
I added flexbuilder support to some of my archetypes. (Taking as a start the simpler of all the fna archetypes, the flex-library-archetype)
I also upgraded the archetypes with flexmojos 2.0 support and up to the latest Flex SDK
Have a look atmy other blog to look up for details and for the presentation I uploaded on slideshare
