Agree to most of your views Nishtant, specifically the fact that
we need to be good programmers at the end of the day. Being
stubborn (oh yes stubborn!) & disciplined to extensbility,
scalability of the app architecture, good code writing practices
is something that will stand you apart in the crowd. Strict
usability practices/guidelines is another area (if you are serious
about UI) that you should focus on. But I still dont buy in the
whole propaganda of 'fire in the mountain .. run run run', but
then its not all hunky dory as well.
Adobe's priorities have changed, they are a company and its their
own right to invest in what they think would be most valuable and
good investment for them. People still do not realize that when
flash for mobile devices (and thus flex in a way) was not dumped,
there were still alternatives, and you could still develop apps
without using flex, weighing the odds of the options available (at
that time or today) is still very subjective and depends on use
cases. Flex is still a choice, but the future of
technology/platform is uncertain. I would (and everyone should)
see this as an opportunity to apply all that you have learnt with
flex in other frameworks. extJS do makes sense. Think about
working with SVG, canvas directly in the browser. HTML5
capabilities are not there yet, and undoubtedly flex is ahead, but
flex clearly is not the future, HTML5 is.
Thanks

Hi,
I agree with the original post that Flex developers should be
on their toes looking at other technologies, the most obvious
choice being UI technologies like HTML5, JQuery etc.
Couple of reasons:
* Flex is winding down and even though it'll wind down even
faster with upcoming Windows 8 which will not support
browser plugins and increasing dominance of iOS. Even
Adobe is pulling out of mobile browser space and will have
to do so when major OS stop supporting third-party browser
plugins. Sad but true.
* Flex wouldn't die tomorrow, but you'll see less and less
money put into it which means lesser exciting work and
more maintenance on projects which are waiting to be
converted into other technologies. Obviously these will
not be a hell lot and will also not pay as much.
* Being moved over to Apache doesn't mean it's gonna perform
as good as other projects. If anything that went to apache
became a rockstar, every project will start on apache.
Apache is just an opensource foundation, it doesn't drive
adoption and success.
My advice to everybody (including me) is to start looking at
other technologies and trying to be better programmers with
more emphasis on algorithms, UI models, code structuring and
just being better programmers. That's your insurance against
the any tech you're working on fading out.

Hi Guys,
I'm a flex developer. I've been working for past 1
year on this
platform. I've observered (you may also) a sharp
declining of Flex Job
oppurtunities after HTML5 has succesfully emerged. Not
only this, even
Adobe has also decided to move working with HTML5 in a
official
statement.
Further more, Flex can't be powerful in Tab arena
where IOS and
Android OS work well with HTML5 and other mobile
frameworks like
Sencha and ExtJS etc.,
So, should we take our turn towards HTML5, ExtJS,
Sencha, JQuery and
any mobile and web frameworks etc...?
Hope your experiences and views will help me and also
frehers who want
to see the career in Flex platform.
Regargs,
Naresh
