Hi Team, I have a Flex 3 project that was built on Adobe Flash Builder 3.6 (SDK Flex 3.6A); it needs to be ported to support a non-flash environment. This program was not originally written by me; but I have software development experience. I installed a trial version of Flash Builder 4.7 on my Windows 7 machine, then installed JDK 1.8.0_131 and replaced the Flash Builder's JRE with the new JRE version; installed FlexJS 0.8.0 using FlexFlex SDK installer, and successfully built and ran the example project, thanks to Alex Harui's [Using FlexJS with Adobe Flash Builder]<https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FLEX/Using+FlexJS+with+Adobe+Flash+Builder> wiki page. I have also gone over the Youtube video of [Migrating from Flex to FlexJS<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-FcLs0O-BWQ&list=PLbzoR-pLrL6pLDCyPxByWQwYT>] by Harbs (I have to admit that video is a bit over my head now)
I am looking for advices what will be the best approach for me to do the porting. Questions I have are: (a) Should I start by converting the project from Flex 3 to Flex 4 first using Flash Builder 4.7's own Flex 4.6.0 SDK; and if it is successful, then convert the Flex 4 project to HTML+JS using FlexJS SDK? Or it is better to directly migrate from Flex 3 to HTML+JS using FlexJS SDK? (b) If I convert to Flex 4 first, then I am trying to prepare my browsers for debugging in a Flash environment. My most frequently used browser is Google Chrome. I found that there is no easy way to replace Chrome's flash player, starting Chrome version 57, by the debug version downloadable from Adobe. Could anyone advise me how to set that up for debugging? (c) Could someone recommend the URLs that will help me to get prepared and educated about porting an existing Flex project by FlexJS, especially regarding the name spaces and comboBox.
