I am new to flex and RIA in general. I have been working with .net and java for a while now, and I am just starting to try to create a new interface for some projects of mine, and thought flex might be the answer, but I am having trouble wrapping my head around the idea that its less like a web page, and more like a desktop application, to stop thinking about page reloads, and start thinking about ViewStacks.
So my original thought was to begin with multiple swf applications, and convert parts of the site over one part at a time (for instance, user registration, and then move on to the shared calendar, or another part of the site). But after doing some reading, it seems that its better to build the whole site as one application. Well I hope i can get some help, here is my question.. ---------- I did a lot of searching, and found a lot of posts that seem to disagree. The basic question is: "I am building a big application for a website, using flex/swf as a front end, and .net as a back end. How do I control the project so that its not one monster swf file?" Answers seem to range between using a single ViewStack, to using modules that you load in. Almost everyone wrote, to not build multiple swf/flex projects and try to communicate between them using .net or directly between swf files. ---------- I hope that is clear enough, so i should begin by learning about loading and unloading modules? Is that right? Thanks, Mike
