DZone has released an Adobe Flex Refcard which will help readers get started learning Flex. Firstly, it covers a simple "Hello, World" application which will help familiarize readers with the Flex Builder tool and programming model. Secondly, it goes into depth about how to connect Flex applications to back-end data through RESTful XML and SOAP. And lastly, "Remoting and Messaging with Java" walks through how to easily connect to a Java back-end with the open source BlazeDS product.
Features include Hello, World, Web Services, Remoting and Messaging with Java, Hot Tips and more. The Refcard can be downloaded for free at: http://refcardz.dzone.com/refcardz/very-first-steps-flex (Note: If you're a new member to DZone, there is a short registration process to complete in order to download the Flex refcard, and the additional 17 Refcardz in the library - all for free.)
