Brian Riggs of the Adobe Kiwi team has posted a fantastic blog entry regarding how the Flex 2 NoteTag application has been built upon the Cairngorm microarchitecture.
Taking a single use-case in the application - selecting one Note from a list of Notes - Brian walks through the sequence and employment of the various design patterns, and shows how the application is delivered with "Cairngorm Thinking". For many people, the concept of design patterns are an abstract and confusing one, until they are applied in some meaningful context - Brians example is complete with some diagrams that neatly describe how Cairngorm fits in with MVC thinking.
