RE: RE: Macromedia launches Flex (Was Royale)

[Mike Brunt]

There is a very good blog entry pointed out by Sean Corfield from David Mendels of Macromedia.  It explains what Flex is and what the aims are.  It compares Flex to the aims of MS's Longhorn. We will see or have seen the "MS's Flash Killer-Sparkles BS" this article is a good loin-girder to that line.   ColdFusion is mentioned there and IMHO there is a great future in Flex and CF particularly for CF-ites who did not also want to become Flash-Timeline-Actionscript experts.

So it looks like Flex is a JSP application 1st, and an ASP.NET 2nd...but
there's not any real mention of CFMX in the presentation.  Hmmm...

Subject: Macromedia launches Flex (Was Royale)

Ben Forta just blogged the launch of Macromedia Flex (previously Royale).
Verbatim - "Flex is designed to leverage existing and standards based
back-ends, and ColdFusion developers will find that they can use Flex to
build sophisticated n-tier applications (with ColdFusion providing the
back-end processing, and Flex generating the client-side code)."
There's a Breeze preso here
